Death on Tap

By: Ellie Alexander

Narrated by: Carly Robins

When Sloan Krause walks in on her husband, Mac, screwing the barmaid, she gives him the boot. Sloan has spent her life in Leavenworth, Washington becoming an expert in brewing craft beer, and she doesn't have time to be held back by her soon-to-be ex-husband. She decides to strike out on her own, breaking away from the Krause family brewery, and goes to work for Nitro, the hip new nano-brewery in the Bavarian-themed town.

Nitro's owner, brewmaster Garrett Strong, has the brew-world abuzz with his newest recipe, "Pucker-Up IPA." This place is the new cool place in town, and Mac can't help but be green with envy at their success.

But just as Sloan is settling in to her new gig, she finds one of Nitro's competitors dead in the fermenting tub, clutching the secret recipe for the IPA. When Mac is arrested, Sloan knows that her ex might be a cheater, but a murderer? No way. Danger is brewing in Beervaria and suddenly Sloan is on the case.

Beer,mystery and a hint of romance

She settled so hard on the husband so she could get the awesome family that came with him hopefully she move on to the new man and job and keep the family can’t wait for the next book so we can continue the mystery hinted at the end of this book

Good start for a series

Enjoyed the story. Good intro to the characters. Did not like the narrator changing her voice for the different characters. Her "acting" did not suit the characters and was more distracting than enjoyable.

Ok story, terrible narration

I've read most of Ellie Alexander's other series which have strong primary and secondary characters. Sloan isn't that interesting and there aren't any interesting secondaries. Narration is terrible. I tried to return it but because I paid in money not credits Audible wouldn't let me.😡

Great series start. Narrator superb.

This is the first in a new series of a first POV cozy mystery that takes place in Leavenworth WA. With accurate settings and town features. The main character is part of a family owned brewing business. Sprinkled along with the story are lots of brewing facts.

This mystery has lots of red herrings and suspicious odd town folk. While a small town, they are all getting ready for Octoberfest. The narrator brings the town and the town life to life. Totally worth a listen. I’m going for the next in the series to find out what’s next.

Decent story.

The story was good - lots of different events kept it interesting. I didn't love the narrator. she was a little breathy for Sloan and a little wooden for Garrett, IMO. Also, I hate Mac. That character gave me the creeps.
