A humorous and informative history of one of our most popular drinks – beer... and it might just be our most important invention! Since its creation 13,000 years ago, our love of beer has shaped everything from religious ceremonies to advertising, architecture to bioengineering. The people who built the pyramids were paid in ale, the first fridge was built for beer not food... As Jonny Garrett will reveal, this is not a book about how we made beer, but how beer made us... and as Faversham is undoubtedly an ale town, home to Britain's oldest brewer Shepherd Neame, this is an event not to miss!
