A Brief History of Bulimba Gold Top (http://drunkenspeculation.com/2014/08/30/a-brief-history-of-bulimba-gold-top/)by Drunken Speculation (@DrunkSpec (https://twitter.com/DrunkSpec))
[This] is the abridged history of a local beer that was discontinued before I was born but holds my interest for reasons I can’t quite fathom. It might be the notion of brewing beer in Brisbane’s inner riverside suburbs, something that has only recently become a thing again. It might be the romantic filter through which I view late nineteenth century Brisbane. It might just be the name: Bulimba Gold Top.

Cerveza at 11,000 feet in Bolivia (http://orientebrewolero.wordpress.com/2014/08/30/cerveza-at-11000-feet-in-bolivia/)
by Brewolero
My first arrival to La Paz made for a weird epiphany, but a revelation nonetheless. Of course, head-pounding and dehydrated is not quite a state of mind that screams for beer. Nonetheless, we headed for what to any beer-minded person was the promisingly-named Adventure Brew Hostel, although the cranky oldhead lurking in me was a tad wary.

Lille: a Beer Odyssey and Much More (http://masonjust.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/lille-beer-odyssey-and-much-more-part.html)
by Justin Mason (@1970sBOY (https://twitter.com/1970sboy))
I suspect that many of you, as I have done, gazed uninterestedly out of the window as your Eurostar train pulled into Lille station, a seemingly unnecessary stop on your way to Brussels and maybe beyond, with your head full of all the good things that Belgium, where beer is almost a religion, will have in store for you.

London Beer People (http://totalales.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/london-beer-people.html)
by Matthew Curtis (@TotalCurtis (https://twitter.com/totalcurtis))
What London beer city did was create an environment that made beer more accessible to everyone else. I watched onlookers, stragglers and casual passers by not only stop and look what was going on but wander in and start a beer journey of their very own.

Interview with Baron Dickie of Ellon (http://seeingthelizards.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/interview-with-baron-dickie-of-ellon.html)
by Matthew Lawrenson*(@seethelizards (https://twitter.com/seethelizards))
Article taken from telegraph.com (3rd March 2034): Viewing Lord Dickie today, it’s hard to imagine him as the flat-cap wearing firebrand enfant-terrible of British Brewing. Reposing on an antique Chesterfield, dressed head-to-toe in tweed, he looks every inch the middle-aged Scottish country gent.

Unlike a number of other journos, I didn’t bother writing anything for the paper because I knew it was nothing special. I knew the media release headline “Aussie barons brew ale revolution” was simply not true.

Who Will Save the Idea of Craft Beer? (http://growlerfills.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/who-will-save-idea-of-craft-beer.html)
by Alan McCormick (@GrowlerFills (https://twitter.com/growlerfills))
Papazian is exactly right. A craft brewer is a subjective idea, something nebulous left to each of us to define as relates to our own experiences and values. But Papazian’s organization defines it anyway.

Farming Hops, Idaho Style (http://appellationbeer.com/blog/farming-hops-idaho-style/)
by Stan Hieronymus (@StanHieronymus (https://twitter.com/stanhieronymus))
This was by no means a deluge. You could almost count the early morning raindrops hitting the tent roof. There’s one where Orion would be located, a couple by the Big Dipper. Rain and wind can be a very bad thing at a hop farm this time of year. A few days earlier rain and wind in Washington and southern Idaho had knocked down about 140 acres of hop trellises.

by Ed Wray (@TheBeerFather (https://twitter.com/thebeerfather))
Back in May when Chris Marchbanks gave a talk on brewing history he gave out a list of books he recommended. Here’s the list with comments and some suggestions of my own. I’ve provided links for the books which in some cases link will take you to the complete book online, in others it’s to an online retailer. Some of the books are dirt cheap and some are dead expensive.
