Meet Pete Brown, a beer jounalist, beer drinker & author of an irreverent book about British beer, ” Man Walks Into A Pub”. One day, Pete`s world is rocked when he discovers several countries produce, consume & celebrate beer far more than we do. The Germans claim they make the best beer in the world, the Australians consider its consumption a patriotic duty, the Spanish regard lager as a trendy youth drink & the Japanese have built a skyscrapter in the shape of a foaming glass of their favourite brew. At home, meanwhile, people seem to be turning their back on the great British pint. What`s going on? Obviously, the only way to find out was to on the biggest pub crawl ever. Drinking in more than three hundred bars, in twenty-seven towns, in thirteen different countries, on four different continents, Pete puts on a stone in weight & does irrecoverable damage to his health in the pursuit of saloon-bar enlightenment. ”A fine book...the exact tone that a work on this social drug requires.”

He gets into a sticky situation with an angry twotoed sloth & learns how (or how not) to lasso a galloping anteater. As Durrell tells us from the outset, there is one thing to be said for collecting animals: it can never be described as dull. ...
