BrewDog: Craft Beer for the Geeks
A deep dive into the science and styles of craft beer, BrewDog: Craft Beer for the Geeks is the Scottish brewery's second book seeking to educate, enrich, and enlighten. And get us drunk in the most precise and pleasurable ways possible.
Topics explored in Craft Beer for the Geeks include The Science of Flavor," "Why Temperature Is King," and, my favorite since I love both equally, "Why Beer and Food Work Together." Recipes, tips, and troubleshooting help for at-home brewers rounds out the beer bible.
Oh, and even though BrewDog gives an explicit shoutout to the geeks in the book's title, I think we can all agree Craft Beer for the Geeks has "gift for Dad" written all over it too.
