Fermentation, healing, and sacred traditions
Stephen Harrod Buhner’s book surveys indigenous and historical beers described as psychotropic or herbal healing preparations, with attention to their sacred dimensions. Its subject brings together fermentation, traditional plant use, and ritual or spiritual significance across different cultures. The brief description establishes a broad historical and cross-cultural scope, though it offers little detail about particular communities, ingredients, or practices covered.
