Reposted by @sirmontyhusk.bsky.socialLars Marius Garshol @larsga.bsky.social · 20/09/2026My new book is finally out! A short, readable overall history of beer tracing the long lines in the development of beer. Seeing history like that inevitably brings out an overlooked side of the history of beer: beer as a source of massive power.
