Learn how to brew beer with a little help from one of the original brewmasters. Mountain Brew: A High-Spirited Guide to Country-Style Beer Making, helped spark a home brewing revolution in Vermont, a craze that soon spread to the rest of the country. The book is written by Tim Matson and Lee Anne Dorr, who originally shared their homebrew guide with neighbors and friends. When the book was published in the '70s, it was the first since Prohibition. You'll learn how to produce homemade malt, grow your own hops, and even keep away thirsty neighbors. These guys thought of everything.

Tim Matson is an expert on aquaculture in addition to being a published author. His work has appeared in Yankee, Country Journal, and Vermont Life. He teamed up with Lee Anne Dorr who was an original Vermont home brewer to create Mountain Brew.
