Great read, great ideas! March 23, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I'm enjoying this book immensely. This is my second home brewing book (Papazian was the first, about 15 years ago). Like Papazian, "Radical Brewing" includes plenty of lore in addition to hard core brewing info. And like Papazian this book has lots of humor in it. But Mosher's book is much more current, in terms of both information and viewpoint. And the humor is sardonic where Papazian's humor tends to be more goofy and quaint.
If anything "Radical Brewing" is slightly less practical than "The Joy of Homebrewing." It seems like Mosher focuses on giving the reader inspiration rather than step-by-step instructions, which is very wise considering how individualized each batch of homebrew is. Papazian has a certain recipe mentality, where Mosher is instead setting forth ideas and techniques. Good stuff, particularly for the intermediate or advanced brewer. Highly recommended.
Recipes are great March 10, 2008

This book is fantastic. It has more recipes for extract brewers and all grain brewers alike than you can poke a stick at and each cattegory of ingredient imaginable is placed into a table so you can compare and find out more about what interests you. I found the detailed chapter on hops to be most beneficial to me. There is a chart with all known hop types and how they may be used and what substitutes could be used instead. Well worth having this as a great reference.

I like this book so much I purchased a second one after the first got ruined by obuse.
Randy Mosher writes with humor and understanding of brewing.
More than one of the recipes has become a favorite and where else can you see recipes for Plug Nickel (Thomas Jeffersons Brew).
A great addition of information for any brewer beginner or advanced.
Most used book in my brewing library March 3, 2008

Randy has certainly done a great job of pulling together info and techniques for a wide variety of brewing ingredients. If find myself looking through this book quite often when looking for a certain flavor or wanting to experiment with a different ingredient in my next brew. I wish there was more info on sources for some of the stuff (I'm about out of a few things I got from Randy couple years ago!)but most stuff is readily available.
Just Perfect for my Dad December 24, 2007

I read through other reviews before purchasing this book. This is for sure the book for my dad. He has had a home brew kit for probably 10 or more years. He is pretty savy with it and I needed a book for Christmas that is advanced but just as witty as he is. This book is full of pictures and great stories and old beer ads. Well written and sure to please that person who is intelligent and witty both.
