New Book: Drinking Vancouver
Monday, December 21st, 2009 | Beer
I know Christmas is just a few short days away, but if you wanted to get me something (you probably do) and haven’t yet, then I’d be all over this new book called Drinking Vancouver: 100+ Great Bars in the City and Beyond. It is a book about drinking in Vancouver! Not that I really need it, but I’m sure I could find a few spots in the book that I haven’t heard or thought of yet.
The book is written by John Lee, author of the Lonely Planet city guides for Vancouver, which means he knows these parts and is a good writer (even better than us). I’ve heard that John pays special attention to beer and many of our illustrious brewers, which can only be a good thing for our local beer scene. If you’ve been wanting to learn more about beer in Vancouver and wanted a guide, then buy this book and get drinking. I do believe the book comes out in January, but it is already available online from Chapters. I am definitely going to check this book out, even if nobody gets it for me for Christmas.
Cheers,
Chris

What’s the point in having that book if you’re going to be leaving the city?!
It would still be cool to read. I don’t live in the city now anyway.
