Beer Craft
Fact: If you can make soup, you can make beautiful and delicious craft beer.
Armed with this book, a stock pot and a mesh bag, you'll be drinking your own freshly crafted, hoppy aromatic beers in a matter of weeks.
BEER CRAFT will teach you how to make awesome beer, mix tasty beer cocktails and rustle up mouth-watering food, as well as providing a guide to some of the best breweries the craft beer world has to offer.
Brewing beer needn't be a complicated, drawn-out process involving a cupboard full of equipment straight out of a laboratory and ingredients you can only order from overseas! BEER CRAFT gives readers a simplified approach to the process, translating the necessary science into layman's terms and making the process fun, approachable and just a little bit rock and roll. A must-have buy for absolutely anyone who likes beer, not just the geeks.
Welcome to your new favourite hobby.
Jon is the co-founder of Grillstock festivals and smokehouses, and the co-author of a cookery book of the same name. The first annual Grillstock festival was launched in 2010 and attracts over 17,000 visitors each year. Grillstock also operates five BBQ joints around the country serving smoked meat to more than 5000 people each week.
BBQ is his one passion and beer is the other. He has been brewing craft beer at home for a decade and even has a full draft beer set up in his garden shed with beer taps mounted on the door.
Jon has a no-nonsensewriting style that speaks from the heart and shoots from the hip (or, in this case, hop), making his text as entertaining as it is informative and accessible. Above all, he writes about what he believes in with a passion, commitment and authenticity that is infectious.
