Talking with author, historian, ranter, and idea junkie Maureen Ogle. She's the author of Ambitious Brew: A History of American Beer. A revised edition is now available where books are sold.
Show Notes
In this conversation, recorded in Denver during the Great American Beer Festival, we cover a lot of ground, including her next project – another beer book – that might interest those of you who got a kick out of my previous show with Jace Marti.
There’s a lot to learn from Maureen’s research and while we all might be focused – especially headed into a new decade – on the future - the lessons of the past are important.
Since we’re both writers, there’s a lot of talk about that particular craft and I try to gain a little more insight on what Maureen learned as a historian diving into beer. That’s where we start.
Here’s our conversation.
