Buffalo Books & Beer

About this event

Buffalo Books & Beer (B3) is a pop-up literary series held in barrooms around Buffalo.

The authors are in discussion with the hosts, and finally open the talk to questions from the audience. Afterward attendees can meet the authors and have them sign their books.

THE AUTHORS

Michael Northrop is the best-selling author of a dozen books which have sold more than a million copies. He lives in Brooklyn. His latest novel, THE BIRDER MURDER, is a mystery to be published by Crooked Lane Books on Dec. 1.

Greg Bauch is a Buffalo-based author and stand-up comedian. He’s a former producer and radio personality on WGR 550. He published UNBELIEVABLE this year, a tale of a record-setting basketball game played with no witnesses during an ice storm, and the radio host who intends to use the game to achieve world fame.

Their talk will be free of charge and copies of their books will be available for sale at the event by Talking Leaves , Buffalo’s premier independent bookstore.

ABOUT BUFFALO, BOOKS & BEER

B3 has brought more than a dozen national authors to Buffalo, including Sherill Tippins, author of Inside the Dream Palace and winner of the Marfield Prize; Matt Gallagher, author of Ukraine War novel Daybreak ; Will Bardenwerper, author of HOMESTAND: Small Town Baseball and the Fight for the Soul of America ; Ken Belson, New York Times sports business reporter and author of EVERY DAY IS SUNDAY: How Jerry Jones, Robert Kraft, and Roger Goodell Turned the N.F.L. into a Cultural & Economic Juggernaut; and Clay Risen, journalist at The New York Times , author of a half-dozen books on history, and an authority on American whiskey.

Founders Brian Castner and Matt Higgins are authors and journalists. Their goal: bring great writers to Buffalo, showcase the talent already here, and capture a community of drinkers (and teetotalers, too) with a literary bent.
