Scott Janis-The New IPA: Scientific Guide to Hop Aroma and F

Post by Beer-lord »

I've not read a beer related book in a long time so naturally, I had to order this one.
In the NEW IPA, Scott Janish scours through hundreds of academic studies, collecting and translating the relevant hop science into one easily digestible book. Through experiments, lab tests, discussions with researchers, and interviews with renowned and award-winning commercial brewers, the NEW IPA will get you to think differently about brewing processes and ingredient selection that define today's hop-forward beers. It's a must-have book for those that love to brew hoppy hazy beer and a scientific guide for those who want to push the limits of hop flavor and aroma!
And no, he didn't come to me for any help regarding hops. :uwish:

EDIT: Here's what he posted on another forum:
I'm nervous about posting this because I haven't even seen the final product yet, but I'm excited to have finished this rewarding project! I ended up reading nearly 1,000 academic papers on brewing, traveled the country talking to some of my favorite brewers who let me document their process (Other Half Brewing, Prison City Pub and Brewery, Reuben's Brews, Breakside Brewery, Bissel Brothers, and Great Notion), sent test beers to labs, and interviewed hop chemists about their great work. I've done my best to piece together the research to inspire brewers to think outside the box, experiment with new ingredients and processes, all to push the limits on hop flavor and aroma! Cheers and thanks for the support!!

LOL! That's exactly what I thought when I read the thread title. I'm not sure it can be definitive without your input.

Got the book today and it's pretty big. Gonna take my very slow time and read it and actually try and learn something. Some of it is sciency which is a turn off to me but I'll turn on my hop-geek and try to learn something.

Beer-Lord, if you had spelled Scott's name correctly I would not have had to google his brother's birthday:

Ha-ha! Until you mentioned it, I would have sworn it was Janis and not Janish. I hope he forgives me for missing the 'h' at the end.
And, all my life, I've actually been an excellent speller. I just suck at typing though I can't even use that as an excuse this time.
The boys a hop genius and I'm in love with him and his hops.
