Product Description |
| Extreme Brewing is a recipe-driven resource for aspiring home brewers who are interested in recreating these specialty beers at home, but don't have the time to learn the in-depth science and lore behind home-brewing. As such, all recipes are malt-syrup based (the simplest brewing method) with variations for partial-grain brewing. While recipes are included for classic beer styles -- ales and lagers -- Extreme Brewing has a unique emphasis on hybrid styles that use fruit, vegetables, herbs and spices to create unique flavor combinations. Once their brew is complete, readers can turn to section three, The Rewards of Your Labor, to receive guidance on presentation, including corking, bottle selection and labeling as well as detailed information on food pairings, including recipes for beer infused dishes and fun ideas for themed dinners that tallow the reader to share their creations with family and friends. "The Italian word for chutzpah is audacia, but it might as well be 'Sam A. Calagione.'" -- Forbes |

 It is what it was intended to be! |
| Review Date: March 25, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Scott Pointon, Crest Hill, IL United States |
| First off I will qualify myself as a librarian and avid home brewer. Though I love brewing at home, I have not as yet made the jump to "all grain" brewing. What I was looking for was a book that had some more advanced recipes aimed at the "weekend warrior" home brewing types that still use malt extract in their beers. This book fit the bill perfectly! With contributions from some of the biggest and most respected names in the craft brewing world, this book is both instructional as well as inspirational. Not everyone pops out of the womb as a superstar brewer, and I think Mr. Calagione should be commended for writing a book aimed at the beginner and intermediate home brewers. I found this a well written, attractive, and informative read. Highly recommended! |
Great investment

| This book has some really fun/great recipes. Although probably not for the beginning brewer. Finally bought this book after getting tired of checking it out of the library. Great addition to any brewers collection. |

| The book arrived quickly and in good shape. My husband really likes the information in the book- it has great recipes for brewing your own beer, as well as information about beer and the brewing process. |
An enthusiastic thumbs up!

I just received my copy of Extreme Brewing and I haven't been able to put it down since it arrived. I've been a big fan of Dogfish Head beers for years and thoroughly enjoyed Calagione's first book Brewing Up Business. Wow, not only does this guy make the world's greatest beers, he's a heckuva a writer too!
Extreme Brewing is informative, engaging and so far pretty easy to understand. I admit I haven't tried any of the recipes yet, but the instructions seem simple enough to follow. I'm really excited to brew my beer in the Dogfish Head tradition.
