Hey, I'm a home-brewer. What's not to like? Is a little advanced though. (

An excellent reference for brewing beers to style, this is the sort of book you find yourself going back to frequently. Each chapter provides a short history and description of a beer style, followed by an analysis of the ingredients/techniques for brewing that style. The major weakness is its utter lack of Belgian beer styles, mostly made up for in Brewer's Publications Belgian Trilogy. I love how it provides ranges, allowing you to experiment with some certainty you're in the right ball park. (
