This fun book was, as stated on the title page, "Privately printed in 1932 for the Members of The Society." The "Society" was the "Company of Amateur Brewers," a group formed by a number of men in Brattleboro, Vermont. As told in the book, "We were originally drawn together by one great compelling thirst in common. This is plain, but there was more. Up here in Vermont, where 'The Company' started, a corner of the land once noted for its independence, we still hold to a vestige of the quality so rare in the modern world. I refer, of course, to the love of liberty." Table of Contents:
