Excellent recipes for the casual brewer
Let me start this review by saying I am what could be called a casual brewer. I brew a couple of batches a year for special occasions, and a few more for drinking myself.
From that perspective, this is an excellent book. It focuses on interesting yet simple recipes that produce great, full-flavored beer. Most of the recipes are all-extract, with a few adding some steeped barley for additional depth.
The variety of beers in this book is truly stunning. From traditional ales, to brewery copycats (recipes modeled after major beers, and titled with a wink so you can figure out who it's copying), to wheat beers, beers with fruit or spices, ciders, meads, etc.
I highly recommend the book to people who want to brew for a hobby without making it a full-time job.

Sould you have acquired a basic knowledge of home brewing techniques, this book provides a variety of recipies that should tickle your lager loving pallette.
GREAT Reference!!
This is the 3rd reference by Charles Papazian that you should purchase. It is chock full of tips from experienced brewers along with the recipies. Being a new brewer, I only wish there were more pictures of some of the equipment. There are websites listed informing one of where to find ingredients and equipment.
