Beers of The World.  Add/Read Comments

I should have asked in the survey whether people are interested in reading about drinks other than wine - cocktails, whisky, brandy and beer. Next time perhaps.

The first issue of this magazine - Beers of the World - plummeted through the letter box this morning. Not sure what I think - its three quid, and has a good spread of articles taking in football (not a subject I take much interest in), history (Joshua Tetley), trends, and breweriana. It touches on food and beer and has eight pages of tasting notes. But the production is shoddy with some truly atrocious photographs many are blurred or heavily pixelated. The last page is made up of poor stock photos. Perhaps I place too much emphasis on the aesthetics and not on the substance of the magazine. But it does lend an air of unprofessionalisum in spite of the quality of the writers.

Subscriptions are available world wide. Prices in the magazine are given in pounds, US dollars and Euros.
