Garrett Oliver and the Oxford Companion to Beer
Wanted to know if anyone else was excited about this book.
I pre-ordered a copy today...the book looks like it's going to be awesome. Nearly a thousand pages of beery goodness...
Not a bad deal at Amazon...cover price is 65.00, and they're selling it pre-order right now for $40...

Really? I thought it wasn't being released till the end of October. I guess early releases never hurt anyone though. Now if only actual beer releases would follow the same pattern we'd be set.
I don't always drink beer ... because sometimes my friends win and we have to go to macro-only establishments.
It seems to have been released early in the US. Amazon.com lists it as "In Stock" even though the release date is listed as October 7th.The Mick wrote:Really? I thought it wasn't being released till the end of October.
The release party is happening tonight at Brooklyn Brewery. Josh Rubin flew down for it, so a story in the Star may follow.
