 Fantastic book! June 18, 2007

This is absolutely the best homebrew, winemaking, and distilling book I've ever read. You can easily tell that the writer has many years of practical experience, from living in remote parts of Alaska, where making your own is the difference between have and have not.
The recipes are simple, cheap, and natural. You'll save so much money and time. I highly, highly recommend this book.
Great Book January 18, 2007
What a great book - easy to read but very informative. While I would recommend reading Papazian for beer, the wine and liquor sections are very useful. Unfortunately, primarily covers "thin mash" liquors, which are made with sugar, and is a bit lacking on all-grain. Still, it helps you learn the procedures and concepts behind brewing and distillation from which you can experiment. Contains many recipes for beer, wine, whisky. A good read and introduction to distillation.
Great read, all-around fun January 16, 2007

On a lark, my wife purchased for me a home brewing kit. Wanting to learn more about the subject, I decided to do some reading. The book's title is what brought me to it, but the content is what kept me reading it. It is funny and practical. It is by no means the decisive authority on home-brew, but its all around nature from real-life experiences makes it a good read. Despite the name, most of the book focuses on home beer and wine making (both legal) with just a little devoted to the theory and possible practical side of home distilling (illegal in the U.S.). As I continue to try out new things in home brewing, I find myself referring back to this book time and time again. If you have a few hours free one afternoon, and are every slightly interested in the subject, I suggest this as a great place to start.

Thanks for an entertaining and educational book. Can't remember who I
lent my first copy to but missed it so bad that I bought another. I've
made several things mentioned in the book and friends brag on them all.
At 2000 NC State Fair my white Scuppernong wine took 2nd place. It was
the first competition I ever entered.
Thanks to Leon
