The Breweries of Australia - A History

Post by mafman »

Hi Everyone,

At the risk of being shouted down...I just thought I'd let everyone know I'm listing on E-bay the book "The Breweries of Australia - A History" - by Keith M. Deutsher (1999). It provides a very detailed account of almost every brewery in Australia's history...no matter how obscure. (Your town may have had a brewery and you didn't know it!!) Also has a lot of old beer label images. If you're interested follow the link!!

Sorry if this thread is not entirely appropriate for this forum.
