Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Drinker's Dictionary It is undoubtedly true that a large share of all the ails and ills that human flesh is heir to, are in some way connected with. Or derived from the use of ale and other kindred beverages. If a man is sick, or peevish, or habitually untidy, indisposed or unfortunate, we often say, what ails him? And often his only ailment is a fondness for ale. Ale has much to do with many evils. It makes a man's breath stale, causes him to Bail, often makes him Fail, prevents his getting Bail, keeps him at the Tail end of the procession, and causes many a Wail; and the man who drinks it, is likely to be lodged in a place the name of which is spelled the same as ail.

Download or read book The Wordsworth Dictionary of Drink written by Ned Halley and published by Wordsworth Editions. This book was released on 2005 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is a slack-ma-girdle? Or a submarino? How did White Horse whisky get its name? Or Old Bawdy barley wine? How do you make a really dry martini? Or beer? Or champagne? The answers to these enquiries and thousands of others are revealed in this unique guide to every kind of alcohol, compiled by dedicated drinker and collector of little histories, Ned Halley, who is an award-winning writer on beer, a nationally syndicated wine columnist and author of numerous books on drink. In a straightforward A to Z format, 'The Wordsworth Dictionary of Drink' identifies thousands of individual brewers, distillers and winemakers, as well as the names of their products. The dictionary aims to be of real, practical help in locating beers and ciders, wines and spirits of every hue to their maker and place of origin. Here, too, are descriptive terms used on labels, along with the less-formal words used by producers and purveyors to promote their products in the market place. Origins, from village breweries to entire wine-producing regions, are located by nation, province and district. In many cases, there is a mention of when a producer or product was established, perhaps a word about the founder or a brief explanation of a curious-sounding brand name. The book is laced with historical anecdotes, a thousand cocktail recipes, essays on topics from the Guiness dynasty to the principles of brewing, from the discovery of distilling to the history of excise duty - and illustrated with hundreds of drink labels from all around the world.
