Read this sometime last year after picking up in Anderson's bookstore. Very fun and informative read on beer tasting and aging or 'cellaring'. With all of the talk within the craft beer community on cellaring beer, it was extremely interesting to note just how very few brews are indeed cellar worthy.

There is a guide in the back that takes you though certain beers' flavors over a 14 year period.

About the author

I am going to be perfectly honest, before I read this book I had no idea that beer could be aged. However, after reading this book I am really considering trying this out. This was a really interesting book about beer, and I really enjoyed it. If you are a homebrewer check this one out. Received copy to review from NetGalley. Aug 31, Toby rated it really liked it.

The author does aim at the American market but refers constantly to European beers. Whilst not alienating, as a Brit, it would have been nice to be directed to beers and vintage beer bars commonly found in the UK. That's my only real criticism. The writing is great and pretty concise if occasionally cheesy. The pictures are well chosen. Recommend for all beer lovers.
