Jackie Dodd’s The Craft Beer Bites Cookbook is a celebration of beer and the people who make it. It’s about the communities we build in our taprooms, the parties we host to share our beer, and the beer lovers who become our most trusted friends. Food is obviously a big part of this, and food that complements the brew is an important part of showcasing the flavors in a new way. Don’t underestimate the power of perfect bite with the perfect pint!
