Description / Synopsis
"Few would dispute that Vancouver is a prime craft beer destination, with over 100 small-batch breweries currently in operation. Beer has shaped the city's culture, and in turn, Vancouver's idiosyncratic identity has also shaped its craft beer. But how did it all begin? Beer historian and enthusiast Noëlle Phillips follows independent brewing from the city's inception in 1886, into the onset of prohibition in 1917, and delves into the explosion of micro, small-batch and craft breweries that dot the city's neighbourhoods today. Illustrated with photos, original newspaper clippings, and maps, this book traces the smaller, lesser-known breweries, owners, and brewers through archival materials and personal interviews, uncovering stories and details that have been largely unknown even to local beer writers and aficionados. Making stops into sunlit tap rooms and basement archives, Brewmasters and Brewery Creek is an inviting and exciting new volume that speaks to brewers, beer lovers, and history buffs."-- Provided by publisher.
