Here is Volume Two of the cornerstone work on Cincinnati brewing history, covering Prohibition through present day. Loaded with hundreds of great old photos, many in full color. Meticulous histories of great Cincy breweries like Hudepohl, Burger, Schoenling, Red Top and many others. Historian Tim Holian's two-volume set is the most complete look at the role of beer consumption and manufacture in one of America's foremost malt beverage centers. Volume Two (1920-2001) covers the return of legal beer and the development of popular Cincinnati brewing enterprises, their ultimate demise in the face of intense competition from national brewers, and local craft beer manufacture through newly established microbreweries and brewpubs. Meticulously researched and supplemented by hundreds of illustrations -- including exclusive access to the archives of the Hudepohl-Schoenling Brewing Company -- Volume Two of Over The Barrel traces the rise and fall of Cincinnati's best-known beer producers, providing detailed answers to a question frequently posed by hometown-proud Cincinnatians over the last half-century: "Where have all our breweries gone?"
