Last week on Beer Sessions Radio we had the pleasure of having Christian DeBenedetti on with us.  Christian just released a new book called  “The Great American Ale Trail: The Craft Beer Lovers Guide to the Best Watering Holes in America“.

While Christian was in the studio he gave us a brief taste of what to expect:

What we have in the Great American Ale Trail and what I sought to do with the book was to talk about beer culture everywhere.  It’s blooming, blossoming across the United States.  It’s more than just beer in your glass – it’s about the places you go and the people you are with… My approach was to bring the American beer culture to life…give people a road map to really get out there and find (beer) no matter where they are in the United States

Christian’s book has a forward by regular Beer Sessions Radio Guest and all around Beer staple Garrett Oliver and has received great reviews  from Sam Calagione (Dogfish Head) to Jim Koch (Samuel Adams) to Charlie Papazian (author of The Complete Joy of Homebrewing).

Be sure to keep an eye out at your local watering hole for upcoming book signings.  And if you are planning on being at GABF make sure you check out the events Christian will be hosting.
