The Beer Wench's Guide to Beer : An Unpretentious Guide to Craft Beer (Paperback)
Key item features
Pull up a stool and learn about beer with the Wench!
Craft beer is officially everywhere: there are now more breweries in the United States since any time before prohibition. At the local grocery store, the beer aisle is as big as the cereal aisle. At the bar, it's increasingly hard to choose a beer--the IPA is stronger than the ESB, right?
In this book, Ashley V. Routson (aka The Beer Wench) provides the first all-in-one guide that demystifies beer and makes learning fun. She'll quickly bring you up to speed on beer styles, the brewing process, how to taste beer like a pro, and how to pair beer with food. Unconventional tastings, delicious recipes from killer craft breweries, eye-catching photos--and, of course, plenty of beer--means there's never a dull moment.

Makes a great gift
This book is entertaining and informative for the uninitated and beer gods alike. As an avid beer enthusisas, I have received several books on beer, usually with a focus on descriptions of various beers or on recipes involving beer. This book covers much more breadth, describing beers (in an entertaining fashion), offering recipes (including cocktails), and otherwise giving a very solid foundation of knowledge on beer from the ground up. What really sells this book above is the gorgeous presentation. The photos are terrific and so is the layout and overall design. Makes for a great gift.
