About this listen
"A splendid book, ruminative, delightful and as full of good cheer as the best pub." Mail on Sunday
"A genial ramble of a book ... a paean to the pub and its crucial role in community life." Country Life
Ever since he was old enough to enjoy them, award-winning journalist and beer-expert Adrian Tierney-Jones has been visiting and drinking in pubs all over the country.
As the world opened up post-Covid and we were all finally able to return to our locals, Adrian's love for this British institution burned even brighter and he promised himself he would travel around the UK in search of the best pub he could find.
The story of one man through the year and his travels to all corners of the country, A Pub For All Seasons follows Adrian as he visits far-flung corners of the country. From mellow, gentle pubs in autumn and dim, cosy spots in winter to bright, lively bars in spring and wondrous, buzzing gardens in summer, Adrian speaks to locals and landlords, hears unique sounds and stories, and samples food, drink and atmosphere. He watches the wild and beautiful similarities, differences between pubs, and notices how they all shift, tonally, throughout the year.
And what started as a simple quest to find a nice place to sit and drink, ends up revealing to Adrian so much more: the secret to what truly makes the perfect British local across the four seasons.
"A hymn to the unique charms of the British pub ... Elegiac, moving and as satisfying as a cool pint of Harvey's Best on a hot Summer's day." Henry Jeffreys
"Adrian Tierney-Jones doesn't just visit pubs - he inhabits them and gives them a voice, allowing them to tell us how they act as the cornerstones of culture and community." Pete Brown
"Profound, personal and powerful." Beer Insider©2024 Adrian Tierney-Jones (P)2024 Headline Publishing Group Limited
