Look for beer behind everything
Do you know how beer shaped culture and the world around us?
The love for beer has influenced humanity for 13,000 years. Priests used it in religious ceremonies and it served as payment for workers building the pyramids. It was also a safe source of liquid at a time when drinking water meant death. Even the world's first refrigerator was built specifically for beer. Beer helped in the discovery of bacteria, and brewer's yeast might one day solve climate change.
In this book, you'll learn how the desire for a perfectly poured pint has influenced the development of civilisations, scientific discoveries, and political decisions.
