Expanded Revised Edition: Beer After School Issue 1 + Ariake Book 'Basic Techniques for Pairing Beer and Food' Theory and Practice Beyond Pairing
Due to the popularity of the feature 'Basic Techniques for Pairing Beer and Food,' we have expanded the pages and completed the 7th printing (the 6th reprint). In this reprint, we have newly included a feature on how to pair the ever-popular 'Biryani' with beer. * All pages of the digital version are available here. https://note.com/hasegawashojiro/n/nd242e72902a5 A new beer magazine (ZINE) born in 2022. We have released three issues so far, and both 'Ariake Book (Introductory Issue)' and 'First Issue' have sold out due to positive reception, so we have combined the two issues and reprinted them! We have switched the binding from the traditional saddle stitch to perfect binding (a binding with a spine), making it easier to handle. Furthermore, in the expanded revised edition, we have added 8 pages to the feature and propose a total of 8 sets of 16 pairings of beer and food. Here is an introduction to the contents. The feature is 'Basic Theory for Pairing Beer and Food.' Not many people have had a terrible experience pairing beer and food. That's right; beer and food generally pair well even 'just like that.' Hence, we have included theories and examples to bring about a 'delicious great change' that surpasses that. You can use them from your very next meal. In addition, there are plenty of exclusive contents, such as manga tracing each member's story of coming to love beer and Hasegawa's insights as a translator with 'Proposals for English Translations of Beer Vocabulary.'
