If your looking to learn how to brew beer this is not the way to go. There are many great books you can find to help with brewing. If you want to learn about the economics of a brewery then this game is a great introduction the world of balancing time, energy, and all the parts that make a brewery a brewery.

Cheers.

I really like the idea of this game, and had a lot of fun playing with it. The beer creation system is really nice, and the amount of customization in making the beers is really great. Unfortunately there are 2 big issues. One is that when the game was localized they did not ensure the text stayed within the buttons, so sometimes it is unreadable. Also, the forklifts and such are not just pretty animations, they are literally transporting stuff around your facility and they have terrible pathing. This means that once you get a larger plant very often this forklifts get stuck and your beer spoils.

I wish they'd come out with a sequel that did not have this pathing issues, as it is the game becomes unplayable.

It's a good game to play. It's recommendable. Before playing, must walk through the manual on separate section because it doesn't have tutorial section when the game started.
