Default Book: Travels With Barley

I am reading a book by Ken Wells named "Travels with Barley: A Journey
Through Beer Culture In America" I thought others might be interested in the
book. The writer works at the Wall Street Journal, and travels more
north/south than east/west. He visits brew pubs along with neighborhood
style bars, although the second chapter is devoted to a bar on a beach in
Florida that seems more like a "spring break" kind of place.

I got a review copy of that, but no one seemed to be interested in a review.
Too bad, I really liked the book!

It's an outstanding book, especially the chapters that mention me.

Cheers,

I didn't get the original posting in this thread, so perhaps the
poster mentined this; but in case he didn't, readers not as ancient as
I am might be amused to learn that the title is a play on the title of
a book by John Steinbeck, written many years ago: Travels with
Charley. Charley was Steinbeck's dog.
