Description

Tasting Notes combines popular science with the appreciation of beer and music, and does so in a way that's entertaining and engaging for the general reader. It explains how our senses work, how we appreciate flavour, sound, and the world around us, and shows us how our senses interact in ways we don't even realise.

So, pour yourself a glass of your favourite beer, cue up one of the tracks featured in the book, switch on your mind, relax and float downstream...
