As unofficial beer ambassador and organizer of The Great American Beer Festival and the World Beer Cup, Charlie Papazian has travelled the globe tasting many of the world's best small batch-beers and meeting the people who brew them. In "The Joy of Microbrewing", Charlie will share many of his unique travel experiences, including discovering a small brewery in the Tsars forest, solving the mystery of making Mead, soaking up the great beers of Zimbabwe, and a search for the famed San Franciscan Monastery in Ecuador, home of America's first brewery. The explosion of microbreweries in the US will also be well-covered with interviews with the master brewers behind Magic Hat of Vermont, Dogfish Head of Delaware, Brooklyn Brewing of Brooklyn, Rogue Ales in Oregon, and many others. In addition to thirst-building stories, Charlie will provide lessons in proper beer tasting and a collection of recipes inspired by unique craft-beers and the innovative brewers who are leading the charge to change beer in America.
Charlie Papazian is a founding president of The American Homebrewers Association (AHA), The Institute for Brewing Studies (IBS), and an organizer for The Great American Beer Festival and the World Beer Cup.
