About the Book
What can beer teach us about biology, history, and the natural world? From ancient Mesopotamian fermentation practices to the resurgent craft brewery, Rob DeSalle and Ian Tattersall peruse the historical record and traverse the globe for engaging and often surprising stories about beer.
They explain how we came to drink beer, what ingredients combine to give beers their distinctive flavours, how beer’s chemistry works at the molecular level, and how various societies have regulated the production and consumption of beer.
