Book Release: The Oxford Companion to Beer

Posted by in Quick News on September 19, 2011 11:04 am / no comments

A few weeks earlier than expected, but The Oxford Companion to Beer has been released by Amazon.  Amazon is currently shipping for the hardcover edition for $38.40 and Kindle copies can be pre-ordered.  The book edited by Brooklyn Brewery Brewmaster Garrett Oliver comes in at 960 pages.  I have already ordered my copy and plan on a review hopefully soon.  I do know the book has over 1,000 entries with 166 contributing writers covering everything from ingredients, to process, to culture and beyond.

While I love my Kindle 140 graphics are in this book, and it may become just to cumbersome for an e-book.
