Gone are the days when a beer cocktail just meant a shandy, but these refreshing concoctions still don’t really get the love they deserve. When you think about it, beer makes for the perfect mixer – not too sweet like soda, less boozy than liquor, and there’s an endless variety of styles and flavour profiles to suit any palate. Whether you like your brew ice-cold and easy to down, or dark, crafty and complex, today’s vast range of beers makes it the ultimate cocktail ingredient.
Full of colourful illustrations, Beer Cocktails brings you 100 delicious and inventive ways to complement your brew – from summery classics like the Micheleda and Lagerita, to sophisticated mixes designed to get the best out of your favourite craft beer. The chapters are broken down by beer type: lagers, pales and IPAs; saisons, sours & other wildcards; stouts & other dark beers; so you’ll always be able to find the perfect recipe no matter the occasion or what brews you have in your fridge.
