Illustrated throughout in full color and structured around a series of increasingly complex recipes, the book teaches essential techniques through clear, step-by-step instruction, revealing a process that is equal parts science and art--you'll familiarize yourself with both the technology that makes brewing possible as well as the malts, hops, and additives that give a beer its flavor.
