The book that first turned the '80 Beers' concept into a series and that predicted the craft beer revolution in the British capital remains a classic of its time. Unlikely to be repeated due to the plethora of London pub guides that have followed, every collector and anyone interested in the story of how beer developed should have one. London invented multi-cultural. Its cosmopolitan from the beginning of the cosmos. So it follows that Around London in 80 Beers will feature beers of every style and strength from all over the UK and the rest of the world. The only common theme is that they are all great beers - not simple liquids for simple tastes. So it goes with the outlets, which include all conceivable types of beer-selling operation and several you would not imagine to have an interest in quality brewing.

Amsterdam, cultural capital of the Netherlands, is a port city cross-crossed by canals and alley ways, its low-rise skyline dotted with town houses and stepped gables. What better way to explore it than by taking in a few beers in its finest cafés? Be our guest as we lead you on the inside track through one of Europe's most exciting cities. Among its many claims to fame and notoriety, Amsterdam has a remarkably vibrant café culture. Once the centre of beer trafficking for much of northern Europe, its recent history as the home of the frothy-topped blond lager is being shrugged off, as a new generation of beer importers and local craft brewers slowly nudge in alongside the supermarket beers. Tiny brown cafés with smoke-stained walls put carpets on their table and peanut shells on their floors. Grand cafés in marble and glass ooze opulence and hand-made ales. Marvels of minimalist modern design nestle alongside ancient spirits houses. It is a city built for explorers. For half a century smaller Dutch brewers have been caught in the headlights of the Heineken brewing empire on one side and the craft brewing eccentricities of the Dutch on the other. Yet bubbling below the surface is an increasingly confident band of newer brewers intent on learning from both. Tim Skelton's hand-picked collection of 80 cafés, restaurants, beer shops and the occasional museum selling between them 80 different beers, takes you on a guided tour round the high spots and to places you would never have found without him, along with useful tips on where to eat and a few places in Haarlem.
