A Biography of the Beer that Changed the World
Posted in Alcohol, Beer, Books, Featured, Products by Coty | Tags: Book, Dark, Ireland, Stephen MansfieldGuinness is definitely not an every person beer, but for some, it is the only beer that matters. It’s one of those things that you either really love or you really hate. Some people swear by Guiness, while others sweat at it. And now you can read about the rich history of this storied beer and the family behind it by checking out Stephen Mansfield’s new book, The Search for God and Guiness.
“It began in Ireland in the late 1700s. The water in Ireland, indeed throughout Europe, was famously undrinkable, and the gin and whiskey that took its place was devastating civil society. It was a disease ridden, starvation plagued, alcoholic age, and Christians like Arthur Guinness-as well as monks and even evangelical churches-brewed beer that provided a healthier alternative to the poisonous waters and liquors of the times. This is where the Guinness tale began. Now, 246 years and 150 countries later, Guinness is a global brand, one of the most consumed beverages in the world. The tale that unfolds during those two and a half centuries has power to thrill audiences today: the generational drama, business adventure, industrial and social reforms, deep-felt faith, and the beer itself.”
