How to Make Your Own Brewskis: The Go-to Guide for Craft Brew Enthusiasts

Beer lovers who want to start making their own brew have excellent chances for success if they start with this book! Back in 1980, nearly everybody in America was drinking similar beers. Only a few major brands dominated America's brewing industry, selling palatable but fairly bland beers. At that time, a mere eight craft breweries were doing business in the United States--but those small operations became the start of a trend. Today, the success of more than 1,700 American craft breweries has also inspired a burgeoning home brewing scene. How to Make Your Own Brewskis is both a detailed description of different types of beer and a fail-safe home brewer's recipe book.

Offers recipes for the home brewer who wants to avoid those less-than-ideal malt extract kits and brew with wholesome grains

All recipes have been field-tested and are easy to follow

Describes all needed equipment and ingredients, and tells where to get them
