Bill Mares began making his own beer 45 years ago, when homebrewing was illegal and there were no microbreweries in America. Today there are over 7,000 such breweries nationwide, and Vermont has the highest percentage of breweries per capita in the country. In this presentation, Mares will discuss the American beer revolution, Vermont’s small but significant contribution, and his co-ownership of a brewery.
Bill has travelled all across the country meeting and interviewing beer-makers of all kinds. Mares has written three editions of “Making Beer,” and fathered Vermont’s brewpub-enabling law in the 1980s Join us on Zoom @ 6:30 1/28/22 – just click on this link to join from your computer – https://bit.ly/BMLBookDiscussion
