Brews By the Book
Munday Library is growing a collection of rare and not-so-rare books and periodicals about brewing and brewing in Texas to support scholars in their research.
The items seen on this page are available to researchers on site at Munday Library by appointment.
Southwest Brewing News
Southwest Brewing News was one of a family of papers which included Northwest Brewing News, Rocky Mountain Brewing News, and Southern Brew News. Six issues were printed a year and covered stories from Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Southern California, Nevada, and Arizona. The publication began in 1993 when the craftbrewing scene in Texas took off and it continued for nearly thirty years.
Munday Library holds a nearly complete run of this publication. Click here for additional information and here to make an appointment to view the materials.
