The Northeast has experienced an explosion of microbreweries and brew pubs producing a fascinating array of beers from IPAs to stouts, lagers, and porters. The number of microbreweries has grown by leaps and bounds since the first edition of this guide was published nearly twenty years. Now, Kate Cone has traveled the length and breadth of the region to both research the breweries profiled in the first edition and the newcomers that have sprung up since, and of course to sample their products. The new volume includes interviews with the brewers, anecdotes and stories about the breweries and brewpubs, as well as directions, information about their hours of operation, their menus, and even some recipes. The breweries are not ranked, as beer preference is so subjective, but Cone does share her personal experiences and opinions. She covers every brewery in the region, so she's able to help you find the places, but it's up to you to determine which you like the best.

This updated compendium of facts, observations, discoveries, reviews, serendipities, humor, experiences, and more is not only for the road traveler, but the armchair traveler as well. Unlike typical guides, which read more like phone directories, Romancing the Roads is a shared diary of discoveries along America's highways and byways. Join Gerry on a tour of hotels, B & B's, restaurants, national parks, antique stores, consignment shops, boutiques, and little-known places that make America such a great place for road-tripping. Unless otherwise noted, the author has visited every place mentioned, from the ostrich farm along Interstate 10 in Arizona to the Biltmore hotel in Los Angeles. Even if you never get in the car and discover such wonders for yourself, you will enjoy this vicarious journey to places both sublime and ordinary as the author makes her way from Washington to California and east to the Mississippi River.
