I forgot that I started this thread a long time ago. I've been collecting links over the years because of my interest in beer history as well as research for the book I'm doing on the breweries in Michigan's thumb. I'm going to pull all my links together in this thread for you guys. I'm gonna put them in initially in no particular order, but over the next few days put them in some form of chronological order. Hope you find these helpful. If you have others pm me and I will add them.

I recall reading here (HBT) that someone met a Ballentine local old-timer and tried to recreate some style of theirs, using this guy's input, without much success.

EDIT: The Falstaff move was the kiss of death form what i read.

I googled looking for some recipes, and only found one, and it didn't seem all that great (I think it was made with a can of cooper's extract.)

Shut up About Barclay Perkins is a pretty awesome. Clearly not about American beer, Ron's site European Beer Guide is full of awesome too.

[Edit] Now I'm reading Brewed in Detroit. The Four Polish Brothers chapter is missing some pages (or at least they're not available). I wonder if a local library would have a copy.
