For Christmas, I received this excellent book by George Wendt, otherwise known as the actor who played Norm Peterson in the sitcom Cheers. What a great idea for a book!
The book is quite entertaining as it is part-biography of all of George’s beer related stories (which we have all told around a pub table during our lives to see who would get the bigger laugh), stories that revolve around his time in Cheers (albeit, not too many stories so don’t buy it if you’re solely interested in that), and fun factoids about beer in general.
I enjoyed the structure of the book which had his life with beer as the main anchor, but then when the opportunity arose, the book would explain what he is talking about in more detail (like what is the difference between a pilsner and a lager).
All in all, a great read for the beer lover! Plus, it’s George Wendt…how can you not love the guy? Feel free to borrow my copy after Mike is done with it. It’s a short read.
