Explore the vibrant world of craft beer with Lonely Planet Global
Beer Tour. We've selected some of the finest tap rooms, bars and
breweries that thirsty travellers can visit in 30 countries around
the world. Discover how to find them, which beers to sample, and
learn about local places of interest with our recommended
itineraries. Each country is introduced by a beer expert and
includes regional beverages that shouldn't be missed. There's a
world of great beer to taste - go and discover it! So why go beer
touring, especially when it's easy and cheap to find interesting
craft beers in your local shop? Firstly, craft beer doesn't travel
too well and is affected by changes in temperature and long
distances. And secondly, due to the explosion in small-scale
breweries, many great beers aren't distributed outside their city
or region. Beer often tastes better the closer it is to home,
especially if that's straight from a tap in the actual brewery. The
craft beer revolution has seen waves of breweries open up to the
public, not just in the United States, the UK and Australia, where
the trend is well established, but all over the world. Visit
European beer capitals like Belgium, Italy and Germany, and sample
local favourites in Canada, Australia and New Zealand. In Asia,
explore hotspots in Japan, Vietnam and China, then venture to South
America, Africa and the Middle East. Each brewery is accompanied by
a selection of sightseeing ideas and activities, from local museums
and galleries, to great hikes or bike rides. The book also features
fun sections on beer trails, hangover cures and the world's wildest
beers. There's also practical advice like how to ask for a beer in
the local language and the ideal snacks to accompany your drink.
