You want a little adventure in your life. And why not? With thousands of breweries and distilleries in the United States, there are more choices than ever on tap and behind the bar. So many, that you’re a little bit intimidated.
But throughout the course of a year you can learn to impress your friends by becoming a pub savant with The Year of Drinking Adventurously, a guide to getting out of your beverage comfort zone once a week for a year. Each of the fifty-two chapters features the story behind a unique beer, spirit, cocktail or wine, designed to broaden your drinking horizons. Some correspond with specific seasons or holidays, encouraging you to forget the million-dollar marketing-supported “conventional wisdom” and drink against the grain. It’s Cinco de Mayo? There’s much more to the celebration than lime-enhanced lager and shots of rotgut tequila. St. Patrick’s Day? Do you really want to be the 700th person of the evening to order a green-tinted brew and a shot of cheap whiskey?
The Year of Drinking Adventurously takes the social imbiber on a journey into the exciting and unknown—one week at a time.
As editor at large of Beverage World magazine, creator of the website, The Drinkable Globe, and host of the web series, The Drinkable Week, Jeff Cioletti has been responsibly imbibing his way around the world. Jeff’s tenure in liquid literacy has exposed him to some of the best libations the world has to offer and given him access to the producers and purveyors of such fine refreshments. He combines his love of drink with a passion for travel and one usually involves the other. When he’s not writing about or traveling for beverages, he’s making films about them. He is the writer/producer/director of the feature film, “Beerituality,” a comedy set in the world of craft beer. Jeff is also a frequent speaker on drinks-related topics at industry and public events and has offered his insights in print, on TV and on the radio.
