This was a fun little book that had lots of interesting factoids about people who have won the Nobel prize or circumstances around receiving the award. As the title alludes to, there were a few that centered on beer; whether it be drinking beer when receiving the call, getting free beer for life because of the award, or winning the award because of something scientific discovered using beer as an element of the process. Curious tales about the award included animals that helped scientists win the award (including animals who were nominated for or won the award themselves), lost and stolen medals, items in the Nobel museum and more. There are also lots of pictures to go along with the stories, which is a nice addition. This slim little nonfiction book is only around 100 pages and not too bad for an independently published book.
