Forget hops: The revolution in craft beer is taking place in gardens, farmer's markets, and deep in the woods outside rural towns across the country. It's beer that offers a sense of place, incorporating locally sourced and seasonally harvested ingredients into traditional (and untraditional) farmhouse-style beers. The Homebrewer's Almanac is a practical guide for those who are interested in incorporating fresh and foraged ingredients into their beer, written by the brewers of one of the country's hottest new breweries. Recipes include:

  • Sweet Potato Vienna Lager
  • Chanterelle Mushroom Saison
  • Nettle Spicebush Ale
  • Sumac Sour Ale
  • Basil Rye Porter

Each chapter offers an overview of what plants to look for in your region, as well as how to harvest and how to preserve them. A brewing guide in the modern DIY tradition with a touch of the retro farmer's almanac, The Homebrewer's Almanac will be a staple in homebrewers' libraries and a source of year-round inspiration.
