No other book of this depth and scope approaches the subject of
beer in the same way that beer lovers do - by style, just as a
perfect pub menu is organized - and gets right to the pleasure of
discovery, knowledge, and connoisseurship. Divided into four major
families - ales, lagers, wheat beers, and tart and wild ales -
there's everything a beer drinker wants to know about the hundreds
of different authentic types of brews, from bitters, books, and
IPAs to weisses, milk stouts, lambics, and more. Each style is a
chapter unto itself, delving into origins, ingredients, description
and characteristics, substyles, and tasting notes, and ending with
a recommended list of the beers to know in each category. Hip
infographics throughout make the explanation of beer's flavours,
brewing methods, ingredients, labeling, serving, and more as
immediate as it is lively. The book is written for passionate
beginners, who will love its "if you like X, try Y" feature; for
intermediate beer lovers eager to go deeper; and for true geeks,
who will find new information on every page. History, romance, the
art of tasting, backstories and anecdotes, appropriate glassware,
bitterness units, mouthfeel, and more - it's all here. Plus a
primer on pairing beer and food using the three Cs - complement,
contrast, or cut. It's the book that every beer lover will read
with pleasure, and use with even more.
