Acerca de esta escucha
The original India Pale Ale was pure gold in a glass; a beer specially invented, in the 19th century, to travel halfway around the world and arrive in perfect condition for a cold drink on an Indian verandah. But although you can still buy beers with 'IPA' on the label they are a pale imitation of the original. For the first time in 140 years, a keg of Burton IPA has been brewed with the original recipe for a voyage to India by canal and tall ship, and the man carrying it is Pete Brown, Britain's best beer writer.
Brazilian pirates and Iranian customs officials lie ahead, but will he make it that far, having fallen in the canal a few miles out of Burton? And if Pete does make it to the other side of the world, what will the real IPA taste like? Weaving first-class travel writing with assured comedy, this is both a rollicking history of the Raj and an entertaining, groundbreaking experiment to recreate the finest beer ever produced.

If you could sum up Hops and Glory in three words, what would they be?
Entertaining Beyond BeerWhat was the most compelling aspect of this narrative?
Discovering the history of Britain's East India Company was something I didn't expect and feel I was clueless about before this book. What we were taught in school seems to been a farce. Cameron Stewart's voicing made it all the more compelling.Have you listened to any of Cameron Stewart’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
This is my first listen to a book as read by Cameron Stewart, and he was good enough, that he's the first Voice Actor I've searched for as a result. He's got a great tone and emotion to his voice.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Finding just how ruthless "The Company" was is a chilling discovery. The history of India is something I now want to dive into and learn more about.Any additional comments?
I love beer. IPA include. I appreciated it even more now. And have a great appreciation for Pete Brown's willingness to suffer for us.More Than a Beer Story
