4.0 out of 5 stars Someone's college thesis, October 22, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I bought this book as homebrewer who is fascinated by ancient beer history. It certainly delivers that, in a very dry college thesis term paper way. In fact, half the book is references telling you where the author found his info. There are NO ancient homebrewing recipes, and it's a humorless but intellectual read.
I love beer history enough that I'm glad I bought it, but it's not for everybody. I wish I had paid less for it.
