Possibly the World’s Best
Beer Books & Guides
Books About Beer is a specialist publishing company dealing exclusively with books about beer – mainly Belgian beer right now but intending to expand. Our first book was LambicLand, a book about the lambic beers of Brussels and Payottenland – second edition expected in Autumn 2009. In summer 2006 we followed up with Around Bruges in 80 Beers, the ultimate guide to drinking in one of the world’s most beautiful beery cities, now in its second. Around Brussels in 80 Beers follows in June 2009.
