Three new books shed light on different aspects of the craft beer renaissance. Whether your interest is in becoming more adept at detecting the varieties and nuances of different beer styles, the history of craft beer in America or how to extend your love of drinking beer into the opportunity to eat it instead, there’s a book for you.

Untappd is an app for iOS and Android that allows you to “check in” to the beers you’ve tried. You can assign each beer a “cap” rating between one and five, with one being a drain pour and five being nirvana. You can also add your tasting notes, a photo and the location where you enjoyed your beer.

Before you could buy bottles or cans of your favorite beer to enjoy at home, your only option was to fill a vessel fresh from the tap at the local pub and take it with you. Those refillable bottles are called growlers, and they’re making a comeback in a big way.
