Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading.
I was all over this title, as you can imagine. (Husband would like to point out that “we” don’t make beer. He does. I am quality control.) Sure enough, it only took a few pages to find a few memorable and evocative lines to tease you with:
As the glass is set gently back on the table, the beer drinker’s tongue pokes out to get one more taste off the lips before they open to reveal a quick smile. The stresses of the day’s work are slowly washed away, with layers of lacing on the glass standing as tombstones memorializing each of the annoyances from the previous eight hours.
Anybody else ready to knock off for the day already?
This quotation comes from an uncorrected advance proof and is subject to change.
