5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional, concise guide to homebrewing, October 12, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Brewing Quality Beers: The Home Brewer's Essential Guidebook (Paperback)
This is the first book I bought before I brewed my first batch from extract--the beer turned out great and I've never looked back. Since then I've expanded my homebrewing library to include Papazian's "Joy of Homebrewing", Miller's books, Noonan's "New Brewing Lager Beers", and others, but as a guide to the basic nuts and bolts of homebrewing, nothing beats this book, and it is the one I turn to first if I have a question I want answered quickly. First time brewers would do well to read this. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Guide, July 5, 2003
This review is from: Brewing Quality Beers: The Home Brewer's Essential Guidebook (Paperback)
Got this book for my first batch. Still refer to it now. This thin manual is all you need to know for your first batch, and even has a (not complete) section on all-grain. While charlie's "joy of" is still a neccesity for first timers, this book contains all the bare-bones info you need and you will need for your first and consecutive batches, without the editorializing and romanticizing of "joy of".

5.0 out of 5 stars Brewing Quality Beers, July 7, 2006

This review is from: Brewing Quality Beers: The Home Brewer's Essential Guidebook (Paperback)
This is a first-rate brewing classic. It simplifies many brewing complexities and delivers accurate and practical information. Byron Burch is a great teacher and brewer and this book reflects his dedication to getting new brewers started and improving veteran brewers. He directs the reader to the most efficient path to brewing quality. Even after 30 years of brewing, I find myself returning to "Brewing Quality Beers".

4.0 out of 5 stars good beginner brewing book, helpful, and complete, May 13, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Brewing Quality Beers: The Home Brewer's Essential Guidebook (Paperback)
I got this book with my first Kit, and it has helped me brew good batches from start to finish. I still have it in my brewing room, and it is the book I open up when I start brewing.

This is an excellent reference for anyone interested in brewing beer. It explains everything you need to know step by step in great detail. All the arcane details are fully explained and easy to find if you need to go back and look something up. A great book!
