Announcing a second edition of the ultimate reader- and drinker-friendly guide to the world's ales and beers: The Beer Bible, the book that won an IACP Award, and that John Holl of Beer Edge called "The only book you need to understand the world's most popular beverage." Now with 25% all-new material, The Beer Bible: Second Edition approaches its subject the same way beer lovers do-by style, just like a pub menu. More than 100 are covered, from pilsners, porters, and stouts to the new and newly popular incarnations of pale ales, the recent return of lagers and helles beers, and Japanese sakes and European farmhouse ales, reflecting how the American craft movement has traveled overseas and returned with some old tricks made new again. It also covers the history, or how we got from Gèobekli Tepe to hazy IPA in 12,000 years. You'll find the science and alchemy-malts, phenols, and esters; the curiosity-how to read a Belgian beer label; the tale of two Budweisers; and the pleasure, from how to taste like a brewer to the art of pairing food and beer to the rise of beer tourism. It's like sitting in your favorite pub with a friend who happens to be a world-class expert on beer"-- Review Quotes: Praise for the first edition: "The only book you need to understand the world's most popular beverage." - John Holl, All About Beer Magazine "... a box of treats... It's a delight to find a book about beer that covers the subject in such breadth and depth at the same time as making it seem fresh and new again" - Pete Brown, All About Beer "A must-read." - Craft Beer Brewing "Jeff Alworth has an impressive track record as a leading exponent of the global craft beer movement... this tome will educate and leave you thirsty for a cold one" - Book Page "a tome worthy of its name" - Food+Wine.com "Beer enthusiasts will welcome this guide that feels like one is spending time with a well-versed drinking pal" - Library Journal "The Beer Bible endows beer lovers with the same incredible depth and scope of information that Karen MacNeil's The Wine Bible gave to enophiles" - Tasting Panel Magazine Publisher Marketing: The most comprehensive guide to the world of beer, with everything you need to know bout what to drink, where, when and why. "The ultimate guide." -- Sports Illustrated Imagine sitting in your favorite pub with a good friend who just happens to have won a TACP Award--a major culinary accolade--for writing the book about beer. Then imagine that he's been spending the years following the first edition exploring all the changes that continue to shape and evolve the brewing world. That's this book, the completely revised and updated bible on beer that covers everything: The History, or how we got from the birth of malting and national traditions to a hazy IPA in 12,000 years. The Variety: dozens of styles and hundreds of brews, along with recommended "Beers to Know." The Curiosity: If beer's your passion, you'll delight in learning what type of hops went into a favorite beer and where to go for beer tourism, as well as profiles of breweries from around the world. And lastly, The Pleasure. Because, ultimately, that's what it's all about. "A tome worthy of its name." -- Food and Wine "Easily digestible for drinkers of all levels."-- Imbibe "Pick up this book as a refresher or a gift, lest we forget that spreading beer education is just as important as advocating for good beer itself."-- Beer Advocate
