The book
Northern Hospitality
A celebration of cocktails, cooking, and coming together, by Briana and Andrew Volk. If you’d like to take a small bit of Hunt & Alpine home with you.
Briana and Andrew Volk wrote Northern Hospitality as an extension of Hunt & Alpine, and what they love – good drinks, and throwing killer parties, influenced by Briana’s Scandinavian roots. Inside you’ll find recipes for modern classics and Hunt originals, plus things you can cook inside or out, and stories of how they created a bar in little Portland, Maine that is loved by people all over the world.
Northern Hospitality was a 2019 finalist for “Best New Book on Cocktails or Bartending” at both the Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Awards and the IACP Culinary Awards.

In their words
“Equal parts recipe book and life philosophy, Northern Hospitality is a stunning adventure into the previously untold story of eating and drinking well in New England. This book is stylish, insightful, and unique — the perfect choice for anyone passionate about entertaining, drinks, and food.”
“Hunt + Alpine has made Portland, ME a culinary destination, not just in drinks but also in food. From martinis to oysters to wonderful service, this beautiful book shows off just how wonderful the north (and northerners) can be!”
“I must confess I’ve never been to Maine. But when I finally make it, Andrew and Briana’s Hunt + Alpine Club will be the first bar I visit. Thanks to their gorgeous new guide to good times, I have a long wish list of what to order when I arrive.”
“Let Dixie have its Juleps and fancy hats. I’ll bask in the warmth of the Volks’ bonfires, bivalves, and Hot Buttered Rum. Northern Hospitality perfectly captures the new cozy in its most unaffected—and most welcoming—form.”
