The whole town of Leavenworth, Washington, is buzzing with excitement over this year's festival activities. And they're eagerly awaiting Nitro's latest offering Cherrywizen, made with locally sourced cherries. But local brewmaster Sloan Krause is tapped out. Between trying to manage the pub, her pending divorce with Mac, and her mounting feelings for Garrett, she's fermenting in internal turmoil. To complicate matters, dreamy movie star Mitchell Morgan and his production crew have arrived in the village to film during the authentic Bavarian brewfest. When Sloan finds Mitchell slumped over the bar, is this a case of one pint too many, or has Mitchell been murdered by microbrew? -- adapted from publisher info
