The sales of premium beer have increased for years as more and more beer drinkers discover the pleasures of a good premium beer can rival a fine bottle of wine. These beers are premium in every sense of the word -- rarity, pedigree, alcoholic content, body, taste and flavor. They are as distinct from a cold backyard beer on a hot summer day as a fine steak is from a hamburger.

The Premium Beer Drinker's Guide is a beer guide like no other. Focused purely upon the elite styles of the world of beer -- exotic and mysterious brews like Trappist Ale, Lambic Gueuze, Doppelbock, Imperial Stout and Barley Wine -- it introduces beer lovers to some of the most intense, complex, potent and remarkable brews on the market today. Never before has one book provided beer drinkers with so much useful information about the world of premium beer.

Premium Beer Drinker's Guide:

  • Reviews and recommends more than 60 international and domestic beers from Britain, Germany, France, Belgium, United States and Canada
  • Covers 31 beer styles, such as Lambic & Geuze, Weizenbock, Doppelbock, Cask-Flavored Ales, Abbey-Style Ales, Peated Malt Beers and Mulling Beers
  • Provides key ratings for every Classic Example: price, freshness and durability, and availability
  • Contains more than 80 full color illustrations, a beer glossary, a quick-reference guide with short descriptions and suggested foods that go well with that beer.

Premium Beer Drinker's Guide makes fascinating reading for anyone who enjoys the finer things of life. It is also an invaluable guide to shopping for beer and for serving these wonderful brews to friends.
