Summary

You want a little adventure in your life. And why not? With thousands of breweries and distilleries in the United States, there are more choices than ever on tap and behind the bar. So many, that you’re a little bit intimidated. 



 
But throughout the course of a year you can learn to impress your friends by becoming a pub savant with The Year of Drinking Adventurously, a guide to getting out of your beverage comfort zone once a week for a year. Each of the fifty-two chapters features the story behind a unique beer, spirit, cocktail or wine, designed to broaden your drinking horizons. Some correspond with specific seasons or holidays, encouraging you to forget the million-dollar marketing-supported “conventional wisdom” and drink against the grain. It’s Cinco de Mayo? There’s much more to the celebration than lime-enhanced lager and shots of rotgut tequila. St. Patrick’s Day? Do you really want to be the 700th person of the evening to order a green-tinted brew and a shot of cheap whiskey?



 
The Year of Drinking Adventurously takes the social imbiber on a journey into the exciting and unknown—one week at a time.

Are you confused by all the books on keto out there? In Keto me Clean or Keto me Dirty, you’ve found one of the authorities on what the keto lifestyle is. Not only will I explain what keto is and why it’s so effective, I’ll also explain what clean and dirty keto is. 
Keto is the most effective diet you can find, for the simple reason that it burns fat. The term ketosis refers to that fact. Once you’re in ketosis, you are burning your reserve fat. Keto goes straight for fat burning, while other diets that work do so by accidentally getting you into ketosis. 
Not only will keto make you burn fat, but it also improves your lifestyle and health. You’ll feel better and you’ll still be able to eat many of the foods you enjoy. Keto me Clean or Keto me Dirty will take you deeper into the keto journey than most books out there. Very few books and authorities explain clean and dirty keto. 
The book in your hand is the right place to start. Not only will you see fat-loss results within a week, but for the first time ever, you’ll enjoy a diet. Not only is the keto diet effective, but it’s fun to do as well. 
Let's begin this journey together...
