Pete Brown is the author of ‘Miracle Brew’ and four other bestselling beer titles around the observation and history of beer. He was once named joint-37th most influential person in the British pub industry. ‘Miracle Brew’ explores how Beer is traditionally made from four natural ingredients: malted barley, hops, yeast and water, and each of these has an incredible story to tell.

Melissa Cole is an award winning Beer and Food writer, her book ‘The Little Book of Craft Beer’ combines good-quality brews and delicious food. It celebrates over 100 of the world’s most innovative and tastiest beers and helps point you in the right direction to find the perfect brew for you.
