Entry #100: The Best Beer Books


 For this blog's 100th entry, I wanted to do something special, so I'm doing a short feature on the best books about beer. After all, this blog is named for three things that make the world a much better place, and I've ignored the first one for the most part (mostly due to my preoccupation reading much more boring tomes for the bar exam). Generally, the following books stand out because they are well-written, do not come across as snooty or snobbish, and are full of information that everyone from the blissfully ignorant industrial-beer drinker, the craft beer neophyte, the self-proclaimed beer lover and even the established brewer can pick up.

The Brewmaster's Table by Garrett Oliver

I'd written about Garrett Oliver's The Brewmaster's Table before, and I still believe that it's the best book on beer out there.
