This book is an in-depth, 300-year chronicle of how a cheaply made drink meant for local workers has become internationally renowned. Covering the changing ways porters and stouts have been brewed over the centuries, how different styles evolved, from Baltic porter to milk stout, and porter's triumphant return in the era of craft beer, this book presents a complete history of the world's favorite dark brew.

Taste the Limestone, Smell the Slate
Terroir is everything in modern wine appreciation. Geologist and professor, Alex Maltman looks at the rocks that make up key wine regions and what difference they make. "Rocks and soils haunt our thinking about wine. We see links, sniff origins, taste connections, digest differences. Is this cause and effect -- or fantasy? Alex Maltman is ghostbuster-in-chief. This wide-ranging and clearly reasoned book shines a torch through the cobwebs." -- Andrew Jefford Burgundy thrives on the limestone remnants of a warm, shallow sea while Sancerre and Pouilly wrap their roots around flint. The finest Pomerols bloom in a 'button' of blue clay, and Beaujolais famously begins life in granite. Cabernet Sauvignon loves just about any sandstone and Champagne gets on gloriously with chalk. But is the secret to great port really schist? Alex Maltman, Emeritus Professor of earth sciences at Aberystwyth University, finds himself between a rock and a vineyard place as he explains how a wine's flavors relate to the geology at foot, and discovers that there is more to 'minerality' than mud, rocks and the earth's stark materials... Terroir is as intrinsic to the quality of a wine as the grapes it comes from or the intentions of the wine maker. This beautifully produced and illustrated book looks at the many factors that influence, or don't, how a wine tastes. Professor Maltman poses lots of questions and answers, while busting some myths along the way.

The Obituary Cocktail
In a city known for celebrating in the face of death, it's no surprise that the funerary tradition is honored by a drink. The Obituary Cocktail is a spirited dive into New Orleans's bohemian past, chronicling how this cocktail--made with gin, vermouth, and absinthe--became central to mid-twentieth-century caf矇 society before fading temporarily into obscurity. Like a good obituary, this book shares stories about the drink, beginning with its 1940s origins at Caf矇 Lafitte, the oldest continuously operating gay bar in the U.S. and the stomping ground for the city's caf矇 society, which included Tennessee Williams, Ella Brennan, and a rich crop of prominent New Orleans visitors. Sue Strachan explores the history of the cocktail's ingredients, shares recipes for home mixologists, and resurrects the stories of other morbidly monikered drinks. With detours into the world of secret societies, second-line parades, and celebrations of deathly holidays like Halloween and All Saints' Day, The Obituary Cocktail gives new life to this unique beverage.

The wine book all novice wine drinkers need: strips away the pretension and explains what really matters when it comes to producing the flavors in your glass of wine. Questions many of the things we take for granted when it comes to wine, from terroir to the science of winemaking. Author is the award-winning owner of two London wine bars who has earned a reputation as a disruptor in the wine trade.
