There are 3 sections planned:<br /><br />Breweries<br />Brewpubs<br />Pubs<br /><br />The pubs section for this book will be limited to about 5 pubs in each of the major towns and cities in Virginia. As ever, we will endeavour to keep you informed as to new projects.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7543893867072096318-6640242059645635318?l=www.pocketpubguides.com' alt='' /></div>Velky Alhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15929927359428659775noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543893867072096318.post-74899433754880212202010-11-12T06:18:00.000-08:002010-11-12T06:34:17.542-08:00It has been a long time in the making, but now available as an ebook on Lulu.com is the<a href="http://www.lulu.com/product/ebook/pocket-pub-guide---prague/13581097"> Pocket Pub Guide - Prague</a>, priced at just $4.99.<br /><br />With text by Alistair Reece and pictures by Black Gecko's Mark Stewart, this is a guide to 40 of Prague's best places to get a pint.<br /><br />While some famous, and infamous, places are not in the guide due to authorial bias, this is the ideal tool for visitors to the city to get some of the best beers the Czech Republic has to offer.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7543893867072096318-7489943375488021220?l=www.pocketpubguides.com' alt='' /></div>Velky Alhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15929927359428659775noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543893867072096318.post-68545711043346294452010-02-24T10:22:00.000-08:002010-02-24T10:22:27.740-08:00Here is the cover for the upcoming Pocket Pub Guide - Prague, featuring the incredible photography of Mark Stewart of <a href="http://www.blackgecko.cz/">Black Gecko Photography</a>.<div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_R8IDaEfZhDs/S4VuQ05Vl-I/AAAAAAAAA_g/R8EPbylwdcU/s1600-h/ppgcover.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_R8IDaEfZhDs/S4VuQ05Vl-I/AAAAAAAAA_g/R8EPbylwdcU/s320/ppgcover.png" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7543893867072096318-6854571104334629445?l=www.pocketpubguides.com' alt='' /></div>Velky Alhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15929927359428659775noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543893867072096318.post-40496777062935989502009-09-02T11:48:00.000-07:002009-09-02T11:55:32.404-07:00Originally the Pocket Pub Guide - Prague had a target release date of the beginning of August, and here we are at the beginning of September and still no book.<br /><br />This is due to the author having moved countries and getting set up in his new life in the USA.<br /><br />The text for the book is almost complete now, and is expected by the end of this week. Once the text has been set with the photography we will have a clearer idea of when a firm release date can be scheduled, pricing and so on.<br /><br />Sorry for the delay, and thank you for your patience.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7543893867072096318-4049677706293598950?l=www.pocketpubguides.com' alt='' /></div>Velky Alhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15929927359428659775noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543893867072096318.post-81933883482365952672009-07-08T09:44:00.001-07:002009-07-08T09:48:41.374-07:00Finishing touches are being made to the first Pocket Pub Guide, which is scheduled to be published in late July or early August.<br /><br />The <span style="font-weight: bold;">Pocket Pub Guide - Prague</span> contains details about 40 of the best pubs in the Czech capital, including 10 tours as well as practical advice on pub life in the city.<br /><br />Full details will be available shortly.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7543893867072096318-8193388348236595267?l=www.pocketpubguides.com' alt='' /></div>Velky Alhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15929927359428659775noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543893867072096318.post-66845958214146580502009-06-05T00:35:00.000-07:002009-06-08T01:59:57.577-07:00Pocket Pub Guides is a work in progress.<br /><br />The aim is to produce high quality guides to the pubs in a given city.<br /><br />There are various books in the pipeline and we are always open to proposals for books.<br /><br />This blog will keep you informed of upcoming releases, news and opinion from Pocket Pub Guides.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7543893867072096318-6684595821414658050?l=www.pocketpubguides.com' alt='' /></div>Velky Alhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15929927359428659775noreply@blogger.com0
