Produktbeschreibungen
Amazon.co.uk
It's a much repeated refrain for many of us: where's the pub? Pete Brown's Three Sheets to the Wind is subtitled One Man's Quest for the Meaning of Beer -- and that subtitle alone will mean that many women will be buying it for the men in their lives (or even, of course, for themselves!) Pete Brown is a beer journalist, and has written a much-loved tome on the subject, Man Walks Into A Pub. It was, he says, a revelation to him when he discovered that many countries produce, drink and pay homage to beer more than the British. He noted that the Australians, Germans and other nations consider that they have the best beer in the world, and he was similarly bemused by other beer-related topics (such as the fact that the Japanese constructed a building in the shape of a glass of beer with a foaming head, and that the Spanish have very different ideas from the British about what social classes drink beer.) As all this beer-related information rushed in, Brown wondered why the national drink of the UK appeared to be losing its favoured status. The answer – for him – was to set out on the biggest pub crawl that the UK had ever seen (a dirty job, but someone had to do it). Putting both his health (and waistline) at risk, Brown has put together the definitive book on subject. And while the tone and title may be tongue in cheek, Three Sheets to the Wind is actually a fascinating piece social history that tells us as much about ourselves as it does about a certain refreshing drink. And, let's face it, it is no mean achievement to impart so much useful information as Pete Brown does -- while still making us laugh. --Barry Forshaw
Pressestimmen
"In the end, "Three Sheets to the Wind "demonstrates how, even though we enjoy beer differently, we're all fundamentally the same." --"Freetime Magazine"

Like beer? You'll like this book.
2. August 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
If you've ever sat in a pub with a pint and wondered how people approach their beer drinking in other countries (or how it is brewed, marketed, served, and what food is served with it), you'll enjoy this book! The author combines a healthy dose of British humor with a genuine love of beer to recount his world travels. Warning: I was subject to occasional intense cravings of the beers that Mr. Brown drank around the world while reading.
New learnings from the pint of Beer!

I did not think this book was useful for my research within the UK brewery industry. However, I could not put this book down. It was a quick read and very humorous. As I read through each chapter, I could only imagine how the pub looked and even how the beer tasted. This book makes me want to travel and really see how the different countries have different reactions for the common drink of beer. I particularly like the ad-lib of Anheiser-Busch as well as the description of the rise of the US beer culture. I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to learn more about the global, cultural history of beer. It's not just for beer drinkers, everyone will enjoy it!

Purchased for my grown son, who is a beer "expert". He has read it from cover to cover and learned even more than he knew already.
