When Great Britain levied heavy taxes against the colonies, the Eastern Shore's first beer geek, John Beale Bordley, swore off English ales and set his substantial estate to perfecting his own home brews. It took another two centuries and a revolution of a different kind to bring brewing back to the Maryland shore.

Tony Russo, author of Eastern Shore Beer will share much more of the interesting history of Chesapeake brewing and sign his books.

Carroll County Beer Week culminates with the Maryland Microbrewery Festival at the Union Mills Homestead on Saturday, September 24^th.
