I was excited to hear from professor and author Jennifer Jordan on the Beer Me podcast (part of the All About Beer family of podcasts). She is in the process of researching her new book Before Craft Beer: Lost Landscape of Forgotten Hops.
The book will chronicle the Wisconsin hop growing industry way back in the 1800’s. A great topic and I am a sucker for stories about lost times in history. The podcast is a little slow and doesn’t dig into too much but does give a starting point for when the book comes out.
