The 50 Greatest Beers in the World: An Expert's Ranking of the Very Best

At last, the perfect book for beer lovers who crave new brew experiences but don't have the time to taste each of the thousands of beers available. To help readers separate the mediocre from the ambrosial, Stuart A. Kallen - author of Beer Here (Citadel Press) - ranks the world's top beers according to the standards used in international beer judging contests. Each ranking is based on the ingredients, brewing process, bouquet, first sip, finish, and overall impressions.
This book is jam-packed with useful information detailing the foods to enjoy with each beer, the histories of the beers, as well as the addresses and phone numbers of breweries and beer importers. Kallen explains what makes each brewing style unique, provides label esoterica, and supplies fascinating facts about the winners - gleaned from one-on-one conversations with folks at the brewery.
