Description
‘A candid, brilliantly human book full of laugh out loud moments. And lots of beer’. Rosie Birkett
With the verve, wit and warmth that characterised A Beer in the Loire, shortlisted for the Fortnum & Mason Food and Drink Awards 2019, comes the sequel, Trouble Brewing in the Loire, a feast of humour, heart, mishap and mayhem.
Three years after establishing his British microbrewery in the heart of French wine country, Tommy Barnes is planning to expand and modernise, with calamitous results…Burt, the devil dog, has risen from the dead. Gadget, the miniature horse, has moved into the kitchen and Tommy is thinking about diversifying. What can possibly go wrong? With Brexit looming, a second baby on the way, and sales of IPA beer plummeting, the future looks gloomy. But just as Tommy reaches rock bottom, inspiration arrives.
With delicious beer-infused recipes, from Chatsworth Bakehouse and the wit and warmth that suffused A Beer in the Loire, this is a feast of humour and heart celebrating France, family and friendship.
