About the Author
Tommy Barnes grew up in Hertfordshire. He worked as a graphic designer in London for 15 years and performed as a stand up comedian in his spare time. Happily made redundant, he set off to France with girlfriend Rose. There they started a microbrewery, Braslou Biere. His first book, A Beer in the Loire, was published in 2018.
Reviews
'A candid, brilliantly human book full of laugh out loud moments. And lots of beer' Rosie Birkett, Sunday Times. 'An anti-hero to the home brewer, Barnes' writing froths and unexpectedly eddies - his second work is certainly no stuck fermentation' Douglas Blyde, Drinks columnist, Evening Standard magazine. 'Tommy's antics are hilarious. Like Brewing meets Bake Off in rural France' James Dowdeswell. 'He writes so well and is funny too.' James McConnachie, The Rough Guide to France. 'Barnes adds something new to the Englishman in France genre not just by being extremely funny but by writing from the heart.' 2018 Best Booze Books, Master of Malt
