New Bern, NC – A bill that would reduce excise tax for small breweries is before the US House of Representitives. This week on the Down East Journal, we travel to a local brewery in Farmville to see what the potential savings would mean. And, a popular folk legend and song is now a book. We talk to the author of "Tom Dooley: The Story Behind the Ballad."
