Why do hops give off the flavor and aroma that they do? "Because"
is not the answer. They vary in Alpha Acids, Beta Acids, Myrcene
and a host of other oils and acids. Where they are grown even
matters. This book covers over 100 individual hops and breaks them
down piece-by-piece so you can properly craft your next homebrew.
It also gives you information on what to expect regarding flavor
and aroma. The Author owns a brewpub and was constantly getting
asked about the hops in his beer and how he got it to taste like
that. After months of leafing through sales brochures, researching
hop farmers, and experimenting himself, he puts all of that "hopped
up" knowledge into one source - in an easy to access manner
specifically for the homebrewer in all of us.
