Short Course in Beer : An Introduction to Tasting and Talking about the World's Most Civilized Beverage, Paperback / softback Book

Short Course in Beer : An Introduction to Tasting and Talking about the World's Most Civilized Beverage Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Straightforward and opinionated, Short Course in Beer is designed to turn the novice beer lover into an expert imbiber and the casual drinker into an enthusiast.

Readers will come to understand the beauty of beer and the sources of its flavor, as well as learn which beers are worth our time and which are not.

With tongue in cheek, the author examines beer s historical connections to the Crusades, the Hundred Years War, and modern-day soccer riots.

He talks frankly (and joyfully) about the effects of alcohol on the body and brain, he defends beer from its enemies, and ushers it out of the frat house and into the dining room.

Discussion questions at the end of each chapter are designed to stimulate lively conversations, presumably over a glass of equally lively beer.

At last a beer course for smarties!Skyhorse Publishing, along with our Good Books and Arcade imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of cookbooks, including books on juicing, grilling, baking, frying, home brewing and winemaking, slow cookers, and cast iron cooking.

We’ve been successful with books on gluten-free cooking, vegetarian and vegan cooking, paleo, raw foods, and more.

Our list includes French cooking, Swedish cooking, Austrian and German cooking, Cajun cooking, as well as books on jerky, canning and preserving, peanut butter, meatballs, oil and vinegar, bone broth, and more.

While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.
