9 posts | 14 read | 6 to read
An all-new mystery series set in a Pittsburgh craft brew pub, featuring a brewmaster with a head for sleuthing. The Allegheny Brew House is a dream come true for Maxine Max OHara, who went all the way to Germany for her brewmaster certification, and is now preparing to open her own craft brew pub in a newly revitalized section of Pittsburgh. But before she can start pouring stouts and lagers to thirsty throngs, theres trouble on tap. Suspicious acts of sabotage culminate in Max finding her assistant brewmaster and chef Kurt Schmidt strangled in one of the vats. Between rescuing a stray gray tabby she names Hops and considering a handsome ex-hockey player as her new chef, Max doesnt have a lot of time to solve a murder. But with a homicide detective for a dad, she comes to criminal investigation naturally. And if someone is desperate enough to kill to stop her from opening, Max needs to act fastbefore her brand-new brew biz totally tanks... INCLUDES RECIPES

Not bad, but lacked the usual cozy mystery vibe. Possibly just because it‘s the first book in a series and sometimes the next book smooths out the rough spots. Liked the brewing and food more than the actual mystery.

Just ordered myself some goodies from a local bookstore here in Pittsburgh! They have FREE SHIPPING 🤩🤩 I got myself some fun mysteries and thrillers, but also a historical horror and historical fiction. They can order and ship whatever you want, the online ordering is amazing, again...FREE SHIPPING. Instead of helping Amazon achieve world domination I'm helping a local business thrive. Feel free to shop there too https://www.mysterylovers.com

Didn't make it to midnight so just opened my #letsgetcozy package. A new to me cozy series book, a great mug, some tea, a bookmark, book note stickies, chocolate, and a lovely card! Thank you so much @drokka - it's all fantastic!

drokka I realized with horror, that I'd not included a tea infuser. I'm glad you hadn't read it. 🙂 7y
melissanorr I have several tea infusers so that is not a worry at all @drokka 7y
drokka Oh good. I've never tried that tea, so I hope it tastes okay. 7y

Today's lunch/dinner break is for pizza and a cozy. I'm hopeful about this one, as it is a) set in Pittsburgh and b) features a female brewmeister, trying to open her own brew pub. But then, murder!

If you like kitchy mysteries this is the book for you... Likable characters and fun twist with the brewing aspect.
