If you are expecting a placid trip through beer styles, a little bit of history, some technical info, and some flavor profiles, it's time to buckle up and get ready for a wild ride. Bamforth delivers the goods as always, but leavened by wry humor, hard-won experience, a whiff of carnality and more than a little love. You could scarcely ask for a better guide to what beer is, what it tastes like, and, importantly, what it means. -- Garrett Oliver, Brewmaster at The Brooklyn Brewery and editor of The Oxford Companion to Beer Delightful reading: surprising personal stories and relevant statements everyone should consider when talking about beer! Bamforth's work was enough to earn him a reputation as one of the most renowned brewing science Professors, but this book explains why the B in Beer, apart from its origins in Brewing, also has something to do with Bamforth! -- Tiago Brand o, European Brewing Convention and the Super Bock Group
