Bit of a strange one this book. Probably meant as a coffee table book and not suited to the ebook format I read it in. What you have here is a tome by Mikkel Bjergso of Mikeller beer fame (mikkeller.com/) . The book is part autobiography, part business study, part beer appreciation guide, and part home brew beer manual. It doesn't really do any one part justice. There are plenty of better books to learn about brewing beer at the DIY level or what vessel to serve which style of beer in but what really could have been valuable here was Bjergso's knowledge of brewing at commercial scale, beer design, the business of beer, and of course his own history in beer. All of these topics are touched on but not enough to satisfy the reader.
