Craft Brew An American Beer Revolution M. B. Mooney In Craft Brew: An American Beer Revolution, M. B. Mooney tells the stories of more than a dozen of the best independent brewers from across the nation. For these brewers, their business is to help those new to beer find that special brew and to offer veteran beer drinkers new and exciting tastes. But more than that, they know that they are extending an invitation to join a warm community and share in a vibrant culture. Mooney explores their stories of passion and caring, history and innovation, creativity and influence, fellowship and rebellion, and, most of all, great beer. Craft Brew: An American Beer Revolution offers the beer enthusiast a chance to be immersed in the stories and culture of the brewing community. But if you are unlucky enough to have not yet found that beer you like, Craft Brew will open your eyes to possibilities and just might send you in search of that special brew that will usher you into the ranks of the converted. M. B. Mooney was in the 2nd grade when his teacher, Mrs. Green, tried to keep him out of trouble by saying, “Why don’t you write me a story?” He thought that was the best idea ever, and it’s kept him out of trouble ever since. Mooney writes fiction and non-fiction and loves a good brew while he works, whether it’s specialty coffee or craft beer, which is the basis for his writing podcast, Brew & Ink. He is the author of Beer Fest (Indiana University Press). He lives with his amazing wife, three creative kids, and a dog in Suwanee, Georgia.
