Summary: What's not to Like?
Review: Great Book about Great Beers. What's with all the negative comments? Loved it!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Simply dreadful!
Review: I wish I could give it no stars, but Amazon requires at least one. I have actually returned this book from where I bought it. I tried to read it. I honestly did. But it read like it was written by a drunk 12 year old (rumors aside on that one). It was horrid. No help at all. No insight. No wit. No humor. It was self serving dribble. Return it and get your money back if you've already bought it. If you haven't bought it, urge people to stay clear of this mundane book and its pompous author. Spend your money on beer instead of this book.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Tepid Brew: I don't recommend it.
Review: I'll probably return this book to my dealer and say I was given a second as a gift. I got about a third of it read, with mounting irritation at the book's ineptitude, before I gave up. For me it was a crashing bore. Better suited for the lavatory lads still wet behind their ears. One got the distinct feeling that the author is that sort and was pitching it to those who just want to pound down lots of beer without real discrimination or taste.

Summary: What's not to Like?
Review: Succinct and personal guide to One Man's Opinion on a variety of brews

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Very Poor Writing
Review: Very poor writing and sloppy, unfunny attempts at humor. The phony crackerbarrel attitude is a real turn-off very quickly. No real wit or wisdom here. Save your money and buy a round for the boys with it. It will be much better spent.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Foamy & delicious!
Review: Whether you're a casual beer-drinker or a fanatic, this fine little book is a highly satisfiying addition to anyone's library. It's just darn fun, folks, and there's an immense bunch of info packed in there. I tip my stein to Mr. Nicholl.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A great book for beer-lovers everywhere!
Review: With a great sense of style and character Greg Nicoll reviews a multitude of beers and gives his perspective on the world of fine ales, stouts, and lagers. A great book to take with you to strange or foreign bars if you are feeling adventurous. Besides a good tounge-in-cheek reference guide, this book is also a great read.
