Praise for The Golden Age of Beer<\/em><\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]\u201cThrough interesting and fun history lessons about beer styles and their unique characteristics, Tom Acitelli gives beer lovers\u2014and even those who are just beer curious\u2014a new way to enjoy mankind\u2019s oldest (and best) beverage. By pairing different beers with the different months of the year, this book immediately surpasses those boring beer encyclopedias out there to become a handbook for adventurers who want to explore new expressions, flavors, and experiences.\u201d \u2013Clint Lanier, author of Ted Mac and America’s First Black-Owned Brewery<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Golden Age of Beer<\/em> is a masterfully researched and charmingly written exploration of the people, places, and stories behind the world\u2019s beer styles. A must-read for anyone curious about the rich heritage and culture behind today\u2019s wonderful beer landscape.\u201d \u2013Joseph Tucker, founder of RateBeer<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a reason The Audacity of Hops<\/em> is the literal bible of craft beer history books, and it\u2019s not just because Tom Acitelli is a meticulous journalist or that he packs heaps of interesting information into a short space. Rather, it\u2019s his writing that stands him in a class of his own when it comes to spinning his narratives into magic. As we witness in Audacity<\/em> and his newest book, The Golden Age of Beer<\/em>, Acitelli portrays all of his subject matter in equally loving prose. His words form poetic and meaningful sentences while managing to be easy to read, entertaining, and funny. His descriptions of even the driest subjects can move me to reflection or a sentimental tear.\u201d \u2014Tara Nurin, author of A Woman’s Place Is in the Brewhouse: A Forgotten History of Alewives, Brewsters, Witches, and CEOs<\/em><\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\u201cAcitelli’s exceptional document of this remarkable growth profiles the brewers, breweries, and brewhounds that have played a part in today’s booming craft beer industry. . . .
