About The Author
Author Bob Klein actually makes his living drinking, judging, and writing about beer. The encyclopedia "'Beer Lover's Rating Guide"' came about when Klein realized he had sampled so many different brews over the years, he couldn't remember which he had tried. He is also the author of 365 Bottles of Beer P.A.D. calendars. Since 1971. Workman is a publisher that's always around big ideas. B. Kliban's Cat, The Official Preppy Handbook, The Silver Palate Cookbook, the original Page-A-Day Calendars, the What to Expect books, BRAIN QUEST landmark bestsellers such as these reflect a knack for publishing books and calendars that lead with a commitment to publish them with a mixture of care and innovation. The bright, appealing trade-paperback format has succeeded with high standards of design and production. Authors who are authorities, who tour extensively and are spokespeople for their subjects, enjoy books of unexpected formats, unique packaging of books with objects, and yet above all, value through conscientious, aggressive pricing.
Reader Reviews
Hey folks, if you want to learn about beer, from decent large breweries worldwide to small breweries in the U.S., this calendar is great. Filling 365 slots per year cannot be easy, so it tends to be the case that our author describes each beer as a wondrous drinking experience, even if the beer is not really all that delicious. Lots of regular references to mouthfeel, down the tongue ... yuck! Hey, this isn't dentist school! But overall, this is a lot of fun and one can learn much about critical reviews of his/her favorite beers, and discover many beers of worth brewed in the U.S. and abroad, not to mention fine brewpubs.
