Here is a comprehenisve history of beer on wheels. Almost from the very moment that motorized beer trucks began to appear in brewery yards and loading docks (around 1900), they stimulated great change within the brewing industry, shrinking markets and expanding sales. Author Donald F. Wood has assembled hundreds of photographs of America's beer trucks over the past century. More than just transportation, beer trucks acted as roving advertisements for their respective breweries, and the always-uniformed drivers acted as ambassadors of beer for the brewery's customers. Enjoy this pictorial record of a fascinating aspect of American beer history.
