NEW BOOKS FROM CAMRA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mince pies and Christmas puddings have appeared in my local supermarket so it must be time to start thinking about presents for you-know-what. Here are some possibilities. All of these books are available on-line from the CAMRA Shop, using the adjacent website address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WORLD BEER GUIDE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the latest book from the renowned Roger Protz. As the title suggests, Roger takes a look at the current state of brewing around the world, against the background of a growing interest in beer. Beer remains the world\u2019s favourite alcoholic beverage and brewers around the world are pushing the boundaries of their art, with spectacular beers now to be found on every continent. The book is divided into sections, country by country, and explains the hold that the global brewers have on trade (AB InBev, for instance, now produce one third of the world\u2019s beer) and the efforts that the craft beer movement is making to counter their influence. The latter includes beers aged in oak barrels or fermented with airborne wild yeasts, thereby seeing a return to traditional methods. The book has 300 pages and is fully illustrated throughout with colour pictures. The release date is 29 October and the cover price will be \u00a330.00. There is a discount for members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
