Great Book for Beer Lovers,
By K. Lee (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beer Drinker's Handbook (Hardcover)
This book provides a great read for beer lovers and the photographs are stunning. It encompasses a brief yet informative introduction to the methods of brewing and how they developed through history. Afterwards, the book takes you around the globe and describes the beers of many different regions and cultures.
This book really shows the deep rooted ties beer has to history and culture. This is book is a great find and extremely underappreciated.
