 Great Technical Info December 24, 2007
This book contains great technical knowledge on how to brew various styles of beer, however for the casual brewer, it may be a little too technical. The title tells all. If you're into the nitty gritty of brewing various styles of beer, this is a good book for you.
 Great book. October 25, 2007

Excellent book for taking your homebrewing skills to the next level. This book is definitely not for beginners and is mainly geared toward All Grain brewers, although it does cover extract w/grains. Rather than just giving you specific recipes, it teaches you how to formulate and tweak your own recipes for common styles. Definitely recommended reading if you want to transition from mainly brewing from recipes to creating your own recipes.
Great book for advanced homebrewers August 10, 2007

Truly great book, I taught I knew all about craft-beer-making, but in this book I've found many useful tips & tricks for adanced homebrewers.
But - this book is not for beginers.

Daniels' book is a must-have for the intermediate brewer. Invariably newcomers to brewing start off with extract kits, which can produce decent beer and have the virtue of simplicity. However, after a few batches, the now-intermediate brewer typically wants more control over the result, which leads to forays into recipe formulation. Daniels provides a wealth of information that can help with that. This book does not provide recipes, but it does provide great information about the fundamentals that you can use to formulate your own recipes. I wouldn't want to be without this book.
Best book for your own recipes May 21, 2007

After trying to come up with my own recipes and having to guess at hop varieties, specialty grains etc. I wanted a good resource for outlining what characterizes a certain style. "Designing Great Beers" is just that. Ray Daniels analyzes winning brews over many years and provides great little tables about typical grain and hop bills. If you design your own recipes, this is a MUST HAVE!!!
