Editorial Reviews

Lew Bryson writes about beer and whiskey full-time; believe it or not, this is his day job. When he's not critiquing the sudsy stuff for Beverage Business, Cheers Magazine, or the Ale Street News, this beer connoisseur is busy pumping out reliable state guidebooks on local breweries and brewpubs. So far, he's created a full shelf of these drinker's friends: New York Breweries; Pennsylvania Breweries; Virginia, Maryland & Delaware Breweries; and now, for Garden State imbibers, New Jersey Breweries. This 224-page primer profiles 23 first-rate beer spots around the state. Each chapter features info on the types of beers brewed, available tours, nearby points of interest, and (not least) Bryson's picks on the best beers on tap. The guidebook also includes a wealth of other beer-related topics. Another round of a thirst-quenching series.
