内容説明
A sparkling, premium strength history of beer, served with irreverence and wit by an industry insider.Told in a witty and popular style, this unique take on an amazing and amusing subject is stuffed full of remarkable tales and facts with which to astound your mates down the pub. It's a sozzled tale of fungi, yeast obsessed monks, an Egyptian Goddess, a bear in yellow nylon , and a Canadian bloke who changed the drinking habits of a nation. The history of british beer drinking is a social history of the nation itself, full of catastrophe (the Great Beer Flood of 1814), heroism (beer and the Second World War) and an awful lot of hangovers.
