Tommy Barnes - Trouble Brewing in the Loire

A warm (beer) welcome back to Tommy for the second part of his brewing story, Trouble Brewing in the Loire!

Tommy Barnes - Trouble Brewing in the Loire

About Tommy Barnes - Trouble Brewing in the Loire

Burt, the hound of Beelzebub, has risen from the dead, Gadget the miniature horse has moved into the kitchen and Tommy has decided to expand his beer business, and on the advice of his wife Rose, is thinking about distilling gin, what can possibly go wrong? With Brexit looming, a second baby on the way, and sales of IPA beer plummeting, trouble is brewing in the Loire. Shortlisted for the Fortnum & Mason Food and Drink Awards 2019, Tommy Barnes' first book, A Beer in the Loire, told the tale of a year lurching from disaster to disaster as attempted to escape the rat race by starting a brewery in one of the finest wine-producing regions on the planet.
