Back before many of you had even started drinking good beer, Stephen Beaumont was writing books about it. For those of us who scribble about beer, he is something of a hero. (Wow, that was an understatement.) With seven books already to his credit, he will be in Seattle on Monday to introduce his eighth: Pocket Beer Book 2014. Available on Amazon.
Join The Burgundian on Monday, September 9th as they welcome Stephen Beaumont to Seattle. Starting at 6:00 p.m., he will be signing books and talking about his beer-fueled books and travels. Come out to The Burgundian and amaze Mr. Beaumont with your vast encyclopedic knowledge of beer. Act like you are not impressed by his. Or just get a signed copy of his new book and say hello. To commemorate the occasion, they will have some beer, cocktail and food specials waiting for you.
Stephen Beaumont is the author of:
The Great Canadian Beer Guide (first and second editions)
A Taste for Beer
World Atlas of Beer
The Beerbistro Cookbook
Stephen Beaumont’s Brewpub Cookbook: 100 Great Recipes from 30 Famous North American Brewpubs.
