I wasted my money. I thought this book would show recipes for cloning large commercial brewery brews like Bud, Keystone, Coors, Kokanee, etc., not the smaller Micro Brewerys. I can come up with my own Micro Brew beers. Again, I wasted my money.

While not reasonably as excellent as their later book “Beer Captured”, I’d give this book about 31/2 stars for the amount of information it contains (the Szamatulski’s 2nd book is even more detailed hence the lower rating). You get a variety of recipes from all over the world including countries you might not expect to even allow alcohol. I’ve never brewed beer but I’d say that this book would do pretty well for extract, mini mash or all grain method brewers who have a excellent thought of what they’re doing. While there is some introductory information and some more in the appendices I really don’t reflect the total novice(like me) should rely on this book alone. How close are the cloned recipes?, I don’t know but expect that most of us couldn’t tell the difference.

The largest problem is that I have only heard of about 6 of the beers that were in there. There are no recipes for any of the huge breweries. The excellent news is that the book gives very excellent tips on how to clone beer. Some of the beers I made were pretty excellent. Some that I have not tried yet looked like they would be very excellent. Exstensive brewing knowlege is needed to know what they are talking about. Not a beginer book.

Although it deserves more than one star, I’m trying to compensate for the blatant over-rating this book has received. It is obvious to me that many of the ratings are from friends or clients of their brewshop in Connecticut, USA(my home state)
The recipes seem fine for beginning to intermediate brewers, although I find them ridiculously precise with such beauties as “after 48 minutes of the boil, add so and so, then boil for 13 minutes, then add so and so and boil for 2 minutes, etc”. Does boiling for 48 minutes make a different beer than boiling for 50 minutes?
What avid, advanced homebrewer would want to use these recipes for all-grain beers? Who honestly believes that you can “clone” beers using malt-extract recipes? And finally, what all-grain brewer ever goes back to using extracts once they have veteran the FAR SUPERIOR results of cereals?
I won’t repeat additional reviewers’ negative comments (amazon.co.uk), but I wholeheartedly agree. I do regret having bought this book.
My advice for all who find this book brilliant: try proper brewing with cereals and not extracts and you will experience a whole new world!
