Packed with 260 homebrew recipes, A Year of Beer is a recipe book no homebrewer should be without. Chapters are divided into the four seasons, based on the best or most traditional season to brew and... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I bought it mostly for the brewing calendar. It's a nice guide for when to brew different styles. Most of the recipes come from the National Homebrew competitions. The book assumes you already know how to brew. Most recipes have just the basic info about mash temp, etc. There is an awesome mead recipe - "After Dinner Dessert".
Not the best for beginners

Most of these recipes are all grain. Not a great idea for beginning brewers. But a great idea if you are thinking about making the move up to all grain. A creative brewer could probably make many of them into extract recipes. The best part is helping you figure out the best the brew for the time of the year. Over all, a fine book.
A lot of good recipies.

Recipies from award winning homebrews. There are a lot of good recipies in here and a lot that it's hard to imagine that they won anything at all. Regardless of the material the author did a great job compiling all of the recipies and presents it well in this edition. A must have for homebrewers.
