This engrossing and passionate narrative of Maryland's fermented history begins with the earliest brewers in the colony – women - and wends its way into the modern world, revealing long held secrets and little known details of the brewing families and their birthrights. This absolutely unique work changes our understanding of the industry in the state and the region.

This history begins with the earliest brewers in the colony--women--revealing details of the Old Line State's brewing families and their methods. Stories never before told trace the effects of war, competition, the Industrial Revolution, Prohibition and changing political philosophies on the brewing industry. Some brewers persevered through crime, scandal and intrigue to play key roles in building their communities.

Today's craft brewers face a number of very different challenges, from monopolistic macro breweries and trademark quandaries to hop shortages, while attempting to establish their own legacies.

Maureen O’Prey is an historian and lecturer in Baltimore, Maryland. She is the author of the acclaimed publication Brewing in Baltimore, and historian for the 2016 Emmy Award winning documentary film Brewmore: Baltimore.
