Amazon.com Review
While authors of entry-level brewing books do well to alleviate the fears of anxious new brewers, advanced writers benefit from a pointedly informative approach. Dave Miller's dry, technically versed style has earned him widespread respect through
his own publications
as well as his work with
Brewing Techniques
, the first-rate magazine for small-scale brewers. Really an update to his classic
Complete Handbook of Home Brewing
,
Dave Miller's Homebrewing Guide
is clear enough to introduce advanced techniques to the average home-brewer, yet thorough enough to provide a permanent reference for the expert.

From the Back Cover
The only thing better than drinking a well-made traditional beer is having the satisfaction of brewing it yourself. And with today's improved ingredients and techniques, making your own beer or ale is easier than it's ever been before.
In Brewing the World's Great Beers, Dave Miller takes readers step by step through the entire brewing process, explaining in clear, concise language how to make great-tasting beer or ale -- the first time, and every time. His basic method of brewing with easy-to-use malt extracts helps beginning brewers hone their skills before moving on to more sophisticated techniques.
The book also includes 85 practical and easy-to-follow recipes -- some for beginners, some for veterans -- that capture the Old World flavor of:
-- British Ales and Stouts
-- Belgian Ales
-- American Specialties
-- German Ales and Lagers
