The story of the Bay Area born and based brewing company (handcrafters of HE'BREW beer), celebrating American Craft Beer Week in May. Jeremy was born and raised in Palo Alto and attended Stanford.

What the reviewers are saying about the book:

"This is a powerful tale of how one man turned a passion -- and a pun -- into a durable brand. It is also a touching illustration of how hard work is really the rool of all success." -- Gabriel Kahn, Professor of Journalism, University of Southern California

"Cowan transforms San Francisco into the land of Malt and Hops with humor, an edge and a deep sense of biblical intoxicity." -- David Katznelson, Co-Founder of The San Francisco Appreciation Society  

“This man knows how to build a brand from scratch and reading his story is a fascinating, can’t-put-the-book-down tale. Just don’t read it from right to left.”
-Pete Slosberg, founder of Pete’s Wicked Ale
