Announcing An Illustrated Guide to Drinking Beer

 

After two years of living with the pandemic, folks are finally starting to (hopefully safely) venture back out into the world of British pubs. What better time then, for me to launch my recently finished comic book, An Illustrated Guide to Drinking Beer.

Beer, ale, stout, porter, bitter, pilsner, mild. To an outsider, the world of ales must appear more complex than a chemistry formula.

In this handy guide, the world of beer will be explained simply and easily, and provide a starting point for people of all tastes, as well as a deeper exploration for those already in the know.

Written after several years of frustration when it comes to the real ale community trying to promote itself, I've put together what I feel is a definitive take on how to get into ales when you're completely clueless, plus a little extra fun stuff for seasoned drinkers.

The comic is available for purchase digitally on my Gumroad page here.

Physical copies will always be sold at conventions, the most recent of which will be the West Coast Minicon on July 23rd. I'll also be getting in touch with distributors in the coming months, hoping to get the book into pubs, brewery stores and comic shops.

In about a month's time I'll be releasing an abridged version of the comic as a taster and mini-introduction for the whole experience.

Thanks for reading!
