A full-color, lavishly illustrated graphic novel that tells the multi-layered past and present of beer through dynamic picture pairings and meticulous research into the history of the world’s most popular beer.
The history of beer comes to life!
We drink beer, we love it. But how much do we really know about beer? Beer has been a major factor in the development of humanity since around 7000 BC, and it continues to play a major role in today’s explosive growth in craft beer. In the first-ever nonfiction graphic novel featuring this most popular beverage, The Beer Comic Story, authors Jonathan Hennessy and Mike Smith team up with illustrator Aaron McConnell to present the key people, events, and, of course, beer that shaped and made history. No dry, old historical text here, McConnell’s versatile art style—from period-accurate renderings to cartoony diagrams to historical comics and vice versa—finds an equally effective partner in Hennessy and Smith’s concise, informative text, which appears on every page as titles and text boxes. The end result is a rich blend of text and pictures that is sure to please beer lovers and comic fans alike.
