A beer-lovers' book which playfully examines a myriad of philosophical concerns related to beer consumption. This book effectively demonstrates how real philosophical issues exist just below the surface of our everyday activities. It is divided into four sections: The Art of the Beer The Ethics of Beer: Pleasures, Freedom, and Character The Metaphysics and Epistemology of Beer and Beer in the History of Philosophy. It uses the context of beer to expose George Berkeley's views on fermented beverages as a medical cure to inspect Immanuel Kant's transcendental idealism through beer goggles, and to sort out Friedrich Nietzsche's simultaneous praise and condemnation of intoxication. It is written for beer-lovers who want to think while they drink.
