The Little Book of Pintfulness

Deal with the stresses and strains of an overcomplicated, anxiety-ridden life by rediscovering the ancient art of Pintfulness. More recent, fashionable but unproven ideas, such as Mindfulness, have pushed Pintfulness into an underappreciated niche. These days, the millennial generation rejects going for a pint in favour of less alcoholic pursuits. They are the most anxious, depressed and burnt-out generation that ever lived. This is no coincidence.

The Little Book of Pintfulness will prove that rediscovering the ancient art of pint-taking can help this, and every other generation, to chill the hell out and regain a sense of equilibrium, while imparting a great deal of beer related knowledge along the way. In Pintfulness lies happiness.

Full to the brim with useful tips on drinking etiquette and fascinating facts, this celebration of the world's third-most favourite drink will turn you into a well-rounded beer expert but not a beer bore. Many truths can be found at the bottom of a pint glass. Please read responsibly.
