Wang Weili, a modern craft beer brewer, accidentally traveled to a Song Dynasty that had never appeared in history books(Disclaimer:
This book is a work of fiction, and all characters, events, place names and historical backgrounds are created by the author and have nothing to do with real history. Any similarity is purely coincidental. )
Others who traveled through time either became marquises or prime ministers, or became rich by farming, but he relied on his knowledge of hops, malt and yeast to open an "irregular" wine shop on the most prosperous street corner in the capital.
When the amber wine with dense foam was poured into the stoneware bowl, and when the rich aroma of fruit and wheat spread throughout Suzaku Street, the ancients who were used to drinking turbid rice wine went completely crazy——
"Why have I never heard of this kind of wine?!"
"Shopkeeper, ten more bowls!"
With cups of craft beer, he made literati and sluts get drunk on their desks, knights from all corners of the country bowed down at the wine table, and even the princesses of the dynasty and the generals and tiger ladies became his regular guests.
But Wang Weili didn't expect that this small beer house would become a whirlpool that stirred up the chaos in the court.
When the imperial power struggles and the feuds of the world come to his door, should he use alcohol to diffuse the turmoil, or should he pick up a glass of wine and fight against the entire era?
A toast to the past, a toast to absurdity, and a toast to the readers. Let's see how a brewer used beer to defend his country and conquer ancient times! 🍻
