Country ales and breweries (Country series)

Weidenfeld Nicolson Illustrated

Great pubs along the route of the pilgrims in The Canterbury Tales, starting at the George in Southwark. Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales started and finished at inns. Leading beer writer Roger Protz follows the pilgrims' route, starting in the George in Southwark close to the Tabard Inn where the pilgrims planned their journey. He then searches out the finest pubs, beers and breweries in the Medway Towns and Faversham, home to Britain's oldest brewery Shepherd Neame, before sampling the historic inns of Canterbury. As well as recounting the fascinating history that can be found in these old inns, the book details many of the new craft breweries in Kent.

Beer has been made in the small Midland town of Burton-on-Trent for centuries: ale brewed by the monks at Burton Abbey was sent to Mary, Queen of Scots in captivity. Then, in the 18th century, the introduction of Burton Ale began the town's rise to brewing prominence, a fame which was cemented forever with the production of the first cask of the world-famous India Pale Ale. Today, brewing continues to thrive in the area, and a small renaissance has taken place with the arrival of a clutch of new breweries alongside such national institutions as Marston's. Raise a glass to Burton's unique and heady history, and celebrate its diverse and delicious heritage with this fascinating and richly illustrated historical compilation by The Good Beer Guide's editor, Roger Protz.

Beer Town: The Story of Brewing in Burton upon Trent

Landscapes of beauty...in a world that time seems to have passed by. Step away from the city's hustle and bustle and into the country, where old castles and abbeys stand, where small villages maintain their charm, where the spirit of long ago still burns bright, unextinguished by the modern age. Striking photographs bring forth all the magic and romance of rural areas throughout Britain and France -- the highlands and islands; the gardens with fountains, topiary, cottage flowers, and fragrant herbs; the canals and country railways; the small pubs where one can still quaff a pint among friends. What wonderful places to be.
