Pre-orders are now available for World’s Greatest Beers, a collection of personally selected beers from across the globe that will excite, interest, and intrigue you.

Compiled by eight award-winning authors, influencers and industry experts, these beers are all available in the UK from importers, breweries and beer retailers and there is nothing to stop you working your way through them with an individual narrative journey from the authors.

As well as major producers in the UK, USA and Europe, this book explores some of the outer regions with examples of great beer from Japan, Australia, Kenya and South Africa.

Contributing author Emma Inch said: “Some beers I’ve chosen speak to me of cities, so vivid, so full of the chatter of strangers, that I can feel the stone beneath my feet as they guide me through their thoroughfares. Others draw me instead to a single patch of countryside, tucked between streams and hedges, where I can feel the pinch of a winter’s night on my cheeks, or the hum of a late summer evening in the sweat on the back of my neck.”

Illustrated in full colour throughout, this high-quality book is a must-have for all self-respecting beer lovers. It is available for pre-order now from the CAMRA Shop retailing at £15.99 – visit: https://shop1.camra.org.uk/product/worlds-greatest-beers/
