Time, Silence, and Yeast

“A novel and important work, Dr. Marty Tomszak is in a unique position to bridge the gap between the secular and religious worlds where these beers, breweries, and monks reside. More than a simple history or compilation of tasting notes, Time, Silence, and the Yeast gives us insight into who the monks are, the life they have chosen, and how their beers are both a product and reflection of these tenets and communities.”
