Customer Reviews

Don’t overlook it by Chris Rea
I first thumbed through The Complete Joy of Homebrewing while standing in the bookstore and passed it off as too much of a beginner’s book. I later borrowed my friend’s copy and now have to say this is where I should’ve started to begin with. It is likely the best beginner’s homebrewing book available (which is why you’ll see it bundled with beginner’s kits in homebrew supply stores) but also really good for intermediate homebrewers like myself. Papazian does a great job of keeping things simple and relaxed, but also packs in the info. I’ve learned a lot from this title that I should have a long time ago.

Best start for a homebrewer by J. S. Martz
The best way to learn about homebrewing is directly from a homebrewer, but if you don’t have the fortune of knowing someone who brews, this book is a great start.

wealth of information by bbj712
This is a great step into brewing. Papazian goes through the home brewing process in a step by step process that is easy to follow. This book really lives up to its best seller status. Even many of the advanced brewers that I know still refer back to this book for its charts and information. Well worth any amount in order to have the information.

The best book for beginners by Kuffermann
This is simply the best book for beginners which I have ever come across. I started brewing with it in 1991 and still use it! The humour is corny and some of the recipes are a bit dodgy, but Papazian has an easy to understand style AND remains simple.

Of course, once you get past the intermediate stage of brewing, it is best to complete your collection with more advanced writings.

RELAX, HAVE A HOMEBREW!
