Binding: Paperback
Pub date: October 1, 2015
Like Beer? Love to travel?
Discover 24 of Europe's best cities and towns for exploring and savoring the local beer and brewing culture
Book description:
Drinking In the Culture is the first ever guide to finding, not just good beer, but good beer places, in two dozen of the best cities in the world to drink local beer. From the universities of Sheffield, England, to the historic palaces of Prague, from the well-known beer mecca of Brussels to the little Bavarian gem of Passau, here are gardens, cellars, plazas and ancient halls, all featuring unique and superb local brews amid the rich history and culture of Europe.
This is a book not just about beer or about travel, but about the rich connections between beers and the societies that brew them. For each of the 24 cities, this versatile guide offers:
? A quick orientation to the city as you arrive
? The history and culture of the city and how they have affected the local brewing culture
? A “sixpack” or more of the best places—brewpubs, gardens, festivals, and breweries—to discover the beers of that city and region
? Suggestions for hotels and out-of-the-ordinary sights
? Side trips and excursions for more good beer
? Plus local advice, travel strategies, and tips on getting there, getting around, and staying safe
In Drinking In the Culture, the Tuppers share what they have learned about European beer travel. For everyone from boots-on-the-ground beer geeks to armchair travelers, this book offers an anecdotal and affectionate view of the hundreds of rich and distinctive beer-drinking experiences Europe has to offer.

Bob and Ellie Tupper have compiled a personal database of over 25,000 beers and have developed their own award-winning beers with regional brewers. They know their beers as well as anyone anywhere. They have also been travelling extensively around Europe since the 1970s. Their book is the perfect guide to the beer culture of 24 European cities in ten countries, and also features numerous side trips for the adventurous traveler. For each city, they give you a quick orientation to the city and then, for those truly in need of a drink, they point you to the closest place to the train station for a good drink. The heart of the book, however, are the “sixpack of drinking experiences” in each city. The Tuppers know that the best part of travel is the discovery of great, authentic places where one can meet new people, see interesting things, and discover great flavors. Their knowledge of the beer culture of each city is amazing. Do yourself a favor: buy this book and start planning your next trip. You will be salivating for that next beer all the way to Europe!
