What Is Pints and Power?
It's not about the pint. Not really. Pints and Power is about what Guinness has been all along: a force.
Pints and Power is a book in progress — part cultural memoir, part reflection on how a pint of Guinness became something more than just a drink.
It’s about the stories that only surface in the pub. The quiet moments between pours. The way a pint can carry memory, identity, exile, pride — even resistance.
It started with a visit to Ireland and a pint that didn’t just taste different — it meant something. Since then, it’s grown into something I didn’t expect: a search for the meaning beneath the foam, and the people who live in that story every day.
This site is where I’ll share updates, behind-the-scenes moments, excerpts, and reflections along the way.
Some posts will read like pub stories. Some will feel like pages from a journal. All of it will be poured with care.
Pull up a stool.
Let it settle.
