Disaster is on tap in this all-new mystery from the author of Tangled Up in Brew. It's Oktoberfest in Pittsburgh, and brewpub owner Maxine Max O'Hara is prepping for a busy month at the Allegheny Brew House. To create the perfect atmosphere for the boozy celebration, Max hires an oompah band. But when one of the members from the band turns up dead, it's up to Max to solve the murder before the festivities are ruined. Adding to the brewing trouble, Candy, Max's friend, is acting suspicious... Secrets from her past are fermenting under the surface, and Max must uncover the truth to prove her friend's innocence. To make matters worse, Jake's snooty ex-fianc e shows up in town for an art gallery opening, and she'll be nothing but a barrel of trouble for Max.
This book is delightful for all the small brewery lovers. The owner being a female and the problems that introduces, plus the information she shares about brewing add additional plot lines to the story. The eccentric store owners in the the brewer's neighborhood and the subtle mystery behind each book is fun. Being a Pittsburgh native, it is full of regional language, settings and traditions that I really enjoyed. Great recipes too!
