[Sca-cooks] Oxford Companion to Beer

[Johnna Holloway]

I have already received two emails today regarding the publication of  
this new
reference volume titled Oxford Companion to Beer. ($65).
"The nearly 1,000-page, A-to-Z reference guide digs deep into the  
minutiae of brewing and beer culture, covering topics that range from  
cask-conditioned ales to drinking traditions around the globe."  
"features more than 1,100 A-Z entries written by 166 of the world’s  
most prominent beer experts. Attractively illustrated with over 140  
images, the book covers everything from the agricultural makeup of  
various beers to the technical elements of the brewing process, local  
effects of brewing on regions around the world, and the social and  
political implications of sharing a beer."

Editor-in-chief: Garrett Oliver
Foreword by Tom Colicchio
