Reader Reviews
In case you haven't heard, beer's the new wine, and RateBeer's been guiding drinkers of Milwaukee's finest through the microbrew revolution for seven blurry years. "The Beer Guide" basically puts the best of the website in your pocket, with reviews of nearly 3,000 brews that range from Bud Ice to Zywiec Porter. Everything's ranked alphabetically, with an easy (if brutally honest) five-star rating system, listing of alcohol content, and short descriptions that are as funny as they are informative. I especially liked the section in front with brief, helpful definitions of the different styles of beer (a crash course on learning your lagers from your lambics) and a Food-to-Beer pairing guide in the back that suggests, wine-style, what brews go best with which meals. There's also a Judging Sheet in the back to help get your own tasting chops up--you too could be a RateBeer star. Sized to fit in the palm of one hand (presumably with a pint in the other), it's the ideal guide for sudsers of any level looking to elevate their game. Comment | | (Report this)
