Barrel-Aged Stout and Selling Out: Goose Island, Anheuser-Busch, and How Craft Beer Became Big Business by Josh Noel

3.0

I'd like to slap the author silly for his overuse of the word "iconic". I was a die hard beer nerd during a lot of the years covered in this book. I consumed a lot of the beers mentioned, went to some of the festivals, and felt betrayed when I heard about the RateBeer buyout. At one time I was one of RB's top ten women raters. It was interesting to read some of the history of craft beer, and fill in some of the gaps in my knowledge.
