Fast Fact...

Classic Beer Book Reprinted...
In 1911, John P. Arnold set out to fill a void that existed in brewing literature. The result was Origin and History of Beer and Brewing — a global study of beer throughout history. Up to that point, there had been no such comprehensive study of beermaking. Arnold, a writer and historian, was particularly well-suited to tackle the collossal job of assembling a world history of brewing. He was a long-time writer/editor for the Chicago-based brewing journals Der Braumeister and Siebel Technical Review. In recognition of Arnold's contribution to the study of brewing history, BeerBooks.com has reprinted this groundbreaking book from an original 1911 edition. » Read more at BeerBooks.com.
