Home Brew Beer

The must-have guide for any home brewer wanting reliable, drinkable, and delicious results

Join the craft beer revolution and brew your own beer at home.

Home Brew Beer is a comprehensive guide to brewing beer from home-brewing veteran Greg Hughes. He shows you every step of each process with clear, photographic instructions, so you know what your brew should look like at each stage, whether you are starting with the simplest brewing technique - beer kits - or experimenting with the most customizable - full mash. Detailed information on ingredients helps you choose your malt, yeast, hops and flavourings, and lets you know which equipment you need to get started.

With more than 100 tried-and-tested recipes to choose from, you can brew beer of almost any style from across the world, such as London bitter, American IPA, Mexican cerveza, Munich helles, or Japanese rice lager. Each is suitable for the full-mash technique, while many also contain malt extract variations.

Updated to include new techniques (such as kettle souring), and new recipes (such as Brett IPA and Peach and green tea kettle sour), you'll have all the information you need to brew your perfect beer.
