Making beer has been a part of the traditional English household economy since early times. However, as author Clive La Pensee points out, the tradition actually goes a lot further back than that, back to ancient Egypt, in fact. Micro-breweries may once more be in the fashion, but there is nothing new about the idea. This fascinating story captures the full inebriation of history, covering the types of malt, hops and barley used to produce differing historical brews, and setting each in context. With recipes, for the more adventurous souls who want to experience the taste of the past at first hand.

More great advice from Charlie Papazian, homebrew master and author of the bestselling The Complete Joy of Homebrewing. "Many ask me, 'What's different about The Homebrewer's Companion?' It's a book that I might have titled The Complete Joy of Homebrewing, Volume 2. The information is 98 percent new information, including improved procedures for beginning and malt-extract brewers as well as advanced and veteran brewers. There are loads of new recipes and useful charts and data that I continually refer to in my own homebrew recipe formulation (I still homebrew about 20 batches a year). My theme throughout is 'Keep it practical. Keep it useful.' I wanted to answer 10 years' worth of questions in this one volume. I did ... and I had fun doing it." -- Charlie Papazian Get the Most from Your Malt!
