We are very excited to welcome Dr Christina Wade to talk about her new book Filthy Queens: A History of Beer in Ireland, which is being published this week!
We find out what makes a Filthy Queen (spoiler, it’s the opinion of a man!), discuss historical drink recipes, how varying historical sources and experimental archaeology bring us closer to the truth of our history and share our favourite stories from the book. Of course, you will just have to order a copy to get the full picture!
Reading the book and catching up with Dr Christina has made us want to visit Ireland and she gives us her top tips for doing just that. We suggest that you grab yourselves a copy of this wonderful book and get as excited about it as we are.
