A Quick Review on a Great Beer Book

Just finished this book and highly recommend it. It shows Charles Bamforth on only as the scientific brewer but also the philosopher of malted barley and hops. It was a refreshing look of the spirit of what beer is, and isn't. My next book I'm reading of his is Beer, Taping Into The Art And Science Of Brewing then I'm reading Grape vs Grain. I'll let you know how those turn out but if they're anything like what I've read so far. I'm sure I'll love them.

I'm hopefully starting an ESB on Friday, I'll post the progress on here as soon as I have any!

Cheers

Beer: Tap into the Art and Science of BrewingIn case you've never heard of Professor Charles Bamforth, he is today's modern living genius of beer. He is a historian, scientist, philosopher, author, and lover of beer. He has 9 books and a 7 CD listening set. He also has an amazing speech at Google's Mountain View Headquarters. If you like beer you will enjoy the readings of this man. His You Tube link is here And a great article on his latest book and all of his accomplishments is here at the UC Davis site. Basically, if you're reading my blog, you really should be reading from this man.
