About this item
It started flowing during the gold rush, when saloons were much more than just a place to grab a drink. They were post offices, restaurants, hotels, social clubs, union halls, and more. But then, Colorado banned alcohol―four years before Prohibition hit the rest of the country―and a state born in a saloon ran dry for almost twenty years. Beer led the way back, and by the 1970s, brewing was big business again―really big business. Now, homebrewers have gone pro, and Colorado is one of the best places in the world to grab a brew. Join historians Sam Bock and Jason Hanson on a tour of Colorado history as seen through a pint glass. More than just a tale of ale, this is Colorado’s story―told over a few beers.
“This isn’t just a book about beer. It's a book about us. The beauty of beer is that it intertwines with so many other aspects of life―history, cultural significance, and economic impact. Bock and Hanson explore those threads offering a unique understanding as to why Colorado has become a thriving hub for beer culture! The stories, insights, as well as the connection to present day and the future of brewing is the perfect read for anyone. Bonus―you have permission to enjoy a cold brew while reading!” ―Karen Hertz, Chief Brewista and Founder, Holidaily Brewing Company
