I found a book that I think would be interesting for different level brewers. It is called Brewer's Apprentice by Greg Koch and Matt Allyn. It has great beginner and intermediate info, while some would even be helpful beyond that. What I enjoyed most though was at the end of each chapter they have an interview with someone know/associated by the topic. Eric Harper - Summit Brewing, Vinnie Cilurzo - Russian River Brewing, Nick Floyd - Three Floyds brewing etc.
It was great reading about their passion, their start, and some helpful info...

No wonder brick and morter stores are going out.... they sell for list $24.99 and Amazon sells for $16. + I get free shipping... It's a chain so I have no loyalty to them (Borders)

I have that book in kindle form though I never read it all, just glanced. I've gotten a few books over the years and have never read them from front to back.Gonna have to take another look at that one.
We call Greg Koch the 'beer jesus' around these parts.

Regardless of your experience, I think you'll enjoy the read. I love the interviews...
I'm an old hold out. I still like turning pages etc. I have friends who never read a newspaper, just the online version.
