Synopsis

Beer-writer John Holl has visited hundreds of brewpubs and breweries and got to know the people behind them all. In The American Craft Beer Cookbook, he profiles his favourites and shares 150 of their beloved recipes for food that tastes amazing with beer. From Breakfast Pigs in a Blanket and Free Range Super Pancakes to Barley-Crusted Tuna Sandwiches, Roasted Chipotle Salsa Burgers, and Cheddar-Ale Soup, these recipes fan the craft beer fire with flavours that enhance the taste of a good cold one. Holl includes itineraries for his favourite US road trips to great beer cities such as San Diego, Denver, Boston, and Milwaukee. Or readers can build their own beer-cation with full list of beer festivals and a state-by-state listing of the breweries featured in the book.

MEDIA REVIEWS

"Beer food is more than bar food, and Holl takes you through a range of recipes ranging from Slow-Cooked DoppleBock BBQ Meatballs to Duck Chiles Rellenos. Woven within are profiles of notable brewers and stories about the beers described within. Throughout, the culinary status of beer is rightly elevated."

"I recommend reading Holl's entire cookbook, marking pages as you go, for there is inspiration for every season of craft beer and cuisine. This is a cookbook you'll use often and enjoy exploring, glass in hand."

"The American Craft Beer Cookbook is full of ideas that will appeal to cooks of all levels and change the way you look at beer. Anyone who loves beer, cooking, and entertaining will enjoy this book."

"My wife and I were lucky enough to be guinea pigs when John was testing out a couple of recipes and I can confirm that the book will be worth every penny."

--Sam Calagione, President & Founder, Dogfish Head Craft Brewery

"Not every recipe in the book is made with beer, but they all taste great when paired with beer -- and isn't that the important part? The American Craft Beer Cookbook: 155 Recipes from Your Favorite Brewpubs and Breweries offers up instructions on how to cook everything from appetizers to desserts, including some stuff you'd expect -- like pub-friendly foods and barbecue -- to some you wouldn't -- like cupcakes and ice cream floats. But hey, it's all beer-friendly, so it's all good."

--Saveur

"Finally, a cookbook made for beer geeks!"

--All About Beer magazine

"We've never been so excited to cook in our lives."

--The Boston Globe

"Showcase(s) the transformative cuisine being undertaken by brewpubs across the country."

--Dolce Dolce

"A bible for guys who like to cook with beer, pair their meals with the perfect pour or do both. Some recipes, like the American wheat beer steamed clams, use the beer for both eating and drinking, and all 155 of them taste great with the right ale or lager."
