George Wendt Invites You To Have a Drink With Him In New Book

Beer is one of the world's oldest, most popular drinks and perhaps no one knows it better than America's favorite bar fly actor George Wendt, who's better known to fans as Norm Peterson, the man everyone wants to share a beer with on Cheers. Our Tamsen Fadal pulled up a barstool to talk to him about his new book Drinking with George.

"Through personal stories and fascinating facts, Wendt delivers an ode to beer and all its irresistible peculiarities. In between spinning hilarious and frank tales of his own imbibing adventures -- from taking a first sip of his grandfather's Bud as a child in Chicago to a beer-fueled impromptu performance with Woody Harrelson and the U.S. Women's Synchronized Swimming Team -- he leaves no stone unturned in his quest to reveal and relish every detail about his favorite beverage," says Simon & Schuster.

Drinking with George is available in bookstores now. For more information, visit books.simonandschuster.com. You can follow Wendt on Twitter at twitter.com/GeorgeWendt.
