 Ann Arbor Beer Hoppy History of Tree Town Brewing by David Bardallis

Ann Arbor has always been a beer-loving town. From the establishment of the first commercial brewery in 1838 through a century of German immigration down to today’s local craft brew boom, the amber liquid looms large in Tree Town’s quirky past and present. Find out how beer helped a former University of Michigan professor win a Nobel Prize. Discover the Ann Arbor doctor whose nationally bestselling home remedy book featured ale recipes. Learn which Michigan football legend pounded brewskis as part of his training regimen. Covering the exploits of famous poets, performers and prohibitionists, local author David Bardallis pops the cap off the big beer history of this little college town and leads readers to “the best beer you can drink” in Ann Arbor today.
EVENTS:
  • August 30, Wolverine State Brewing Co. 6-9 pm
  • September 11th, Nicola's Books at Morgan & York
  • September 28, Arbor Brewing Co. 6-8 pm (with a release of a special beer based on a 19th century Ann Arbor doctor's recipe)
