From the Publisher
While government bureaucracy decides whether or not to mandate nutritional label information on adult beverages, drink manufacturers are stuck; why destroy their current inventory of container labels, voluntarily list the calories, carbohydrates, protein, sodium and alcohol by volume, and then have to once again destory their label inventory because their good intent doesn't meet with Alcohol Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) requirements?
Even if the TTB decides on requirements needed for nutritional labeling tomorrow, they still will grant the drink industry a 3-year lag time to meet federal stadards, spreading out any cost concerns.
But why worry about any of this? Does My BUTT Look BIG In This BEER? gives you the nutritional information for 2,000 worldwide beers.

This book brings the wonderful world of beer into the spotlight, giving beer drinkers an edge up on what is in their glass. We all know that beer is no super-food, but it doesn't have to be the devil either. Bob Skilnik really opens up a world of beer to the health-concious consumer, the book is concise, easy to read and organized in a no frills manor. Definitely a must have for the beer enthusiast who wants to remain healthy. I highly recommend this book.

Great book to help you make the best choice when it comes to choosing the right beer. It was easy to follow and the information is helpful. I would recommend this book to anyone who has concerns about what they are drinking. Should be great for this summer!

I got a press release, datelined Chicago, from Bob Skilnik, a publisher who was announcing his candidacy to be the new U.S. "Beer Nutrition Czar."
He points out that the Obama administration is "about to appoint as many czars as a 24-pack of beer," and thinks he'd be a perfect addition.
"Look, I understand that one more czar in Washington would only add to the notion that there would be more czars in D.C. than you might have found at a turn-of-the-century Romanoff wedding. I'd therefore be willing instead to be a 'Roving Beer Nutrition Czar,' visiting bar after bar -- something my wife would attest that I'm quite adroit at -- to get the word out on the positive attributes of America's favorite adult beverage."
What the heck, give him the job.

Don't expect *anything* else than a list of beer health stats, since that's what you're getting.
But since that's the description, and that's what you get, 5 stars!

I hate to write a bad review. I've worked in the publishing industry before, and I know most authors love their ideas and work very hard to get them distributed.
However, as an avid beer drinker, I really don't want to know the things contained in this book. I know beer is not a healthfood. I know that it has lots of calories, none of which are good for my belly. It is, however, delicious. This book can only serve to make me feel worse about consuming it, and that's just not a place I want to go.
So to the author: My apologies. Though, you had to see this coming.
