More Description

Join artist Ceil Horowitz on her adventure through Rocky Mountains searching out and painting ninety-nine beers brewed and bottled in Colorado. This book contains one hundred superb large-format reproductions of her original paintings and accompanying narrative poems. Take One Down Pass It Around was born in Colorado late one winter night over glasses of local brews, when Ceil's lofty ideas of academic still life paintings hanging in galleries melted into ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall. Little did she know that this new quest would take her five years of criss-crossing her home state and painting in crowded breweries, on railroad tracks, and in the ritzy bars of five-star hotels. If you love art and love great Colorado craft beers then you'll love this book!"The brewery can be gone, the beer glass can be empty, the page in this book can be flipped. The subconscious pleasure it brought will last. Enjoy the book, enjoy the beer!"Peter Bouckaert, Chief of Wisdom and other Nonsense at Purpose Brewing and Cellars"Having seen first hand, and ended up part of, what Ceil was painting I am struck by the colors, sure, but more by the life and energy she captures. Listen with your eyes and each painting within offers another story."Stan Hieronymus, AppellationBeer.com"Take One Down Pass It Around - 100 bottles of beer on the wall: I drank my share but never before have I seen 100 beautifully painted bottles of beer!"Patrick Cavanaugh, Rolling Stone Magazine, 1976-2005
