5.0 out of 5 stars
Short and at it's sweetest!,
This review is from: The Simon & Shuster Pocket Guide to Beer: The Connossieur's Companion to Almost 2,000 Beers of the World, 6th Edition (Paperback)
A guide to all of the beers of the world would be a huge undertaking. A pocket size guide would almost seem impossible. However, Micheal Jackson can say more in one sentence than anyone else could say in a full paragraph. Micheal Jackson's review's are poetic and incredibly descriptive. He has a magical way of giving the reader an incredible insight and description of a beer's sensory experience in just a few well chosen words. I can only imagine the knowledge that was edited out of this book in order to make it fit in your pocket.

The Beer-Hunter's Bible,
By Brian Engel (Austin, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The SIMON SCHUSTER POCKET GUIDE TO BEER 5TH EDITION: THE CONNOISSEUR'S COMPANION TO OVER 1,500 BEERS OF THE WORLD
This is the most thorough yet concise book about beer I've ever come across. On my 30-day whirlwind tour of Europe, this was the absolute most useful tool I had. I took it everywhere, consulted it constantly, and kept the tattered copy as my fondest souvenir.

The best,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Simon & Shuster Pocket Guide to Beer: The Connossieur's Companion to Almost 2,000 Beers of the World, 6th Edition (Paperback)
This is *the best* of all the so-called beer guides available, bar none. Michael Jackson is world-recognized and well-respected, having actually earned his reputation as an authority on beer (unlike some johnny-come-lately beer authors who write their own claim to fame). Be sure and check out other Jackson works such as _The New World Guide to Beer_ and _The Beer Companion_ as they are also highly recommended.
