Each year prior to National Prohibition, the publishers of the Western Brewer magazine in Chicago issued the "Brewers Hand Book." It was a pocket-sized publication featuring a variety information for brewmasters and brewery owners. Every edition contained hundreds of ads for brewery-related equipment and materials.
The bulk of each issue consisted of the "Brewers List." This was a complete list of every operating brewery in America, arranged by city and state. Each brewery entry contains the address and an indication of the types of beer brewed (ale, lager, porter, weiss beer, etc.) and whether they operated their own malt house and/or bottling house.
Also included in the Hand Books are:
-A List of brewmasters in America, Canada and Mexico
-A List of Brewers. Associations
-A List of Hop Dealers and Maltsters
-A List of Maltsters
-Lists of breweries in foreign countries
-Internal Revenue Regulations for Brewers
