Pete Brown takes us on a well-lubricated pub-crawl through the
story of beer, from the first sacred sip of ancient Egyptian
"bouza" to the last pint of lager on a Friday night. It is a tale
of yeast-obsessed monks and teetotal prime ministers of how pale
ale fuelled an empire and weak bitter won a world war of exploding
breweries, a bear in a yellow nylon jacket and a Canadian bloke who
changed the drinking habits of a nation. It is also the story of
the rise of the pub from humble origins through an epic, 1000-year
struggle to survive misunderstanding, bad government and misguided
commerce.
