Great History and Survey of Richmond's Brewers and Beer Scene

Author Lee Graves has written about beer for years and is known as "The Beer Guy" to us in Richmond and across Virginia. His beer columns for the Richmond Times-Dispatch were syndicated for a number of years. This book is a great history of brewing in Richmond from the time of European immigrants brewing ales and lagers up through recent times. Richmond is home to more than 15 craft brewers and more are opening each year. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Lee's book and look forward to his upcoming book about the craft beer scene across Virginia.
