About this title

From the Back Cover:

"Back when we worked together, at what was then called the Pike Place Brewery, the day we brewed our barley wine was always a special occasion. Even though it was early fall, we would play Christmas music as we brewed, in allusion to the fact that the beer would not be released until the holiday season was in full swing. . . . To the uninitiated, the very name barley wine seems calculated to confuse. A wine made from barley? Well, sort of."--from the introduction

This definitive book on one of the world's legendary beers clearly explains the mysterious term "barley wine." Fal Allen and Dick Cantwell share their secrets of how to brew this challenging high-alcohol, hoppy, sweet ale that is every brewer's crowning achievement. Recipes from some of the beer industry's most respected brewers--Greg Noonan, Charlie Papazian, Fred Eckhardt, and others--are included.

Brewers Publications Classic Beer Style Series is devoted to offering in-depth information on world-class beer styles by exploring their history, flavor profiles, brewing methods, recipes, and ingredients.
