Love Beer? Want to Love Beer? This is Your Book! November 20, 2009
Leigh Cameron (Washington, DC)
If you have a taste for the many delicious craft beers that are on the market today, or want to learn more about them, this is the book for you. Thorough, detailed, well-researched and really fun to read, "The Naked Pint" gives great guidance on how to develop a personal taste for different styles of beer. And if you've ever felt overwhelmed by too many choices, this is a great reminder that tasting and savoring beer is, after all, supposed to be fun. Highly recommend as a gift item for anyone into craft beer -- experienced consumer or complete novice.
Fantastic book and long overdue! November 5, 2009

I am a wine lover and avid beer drinker--and a very critical reader and writer.
This book--which I bought because I heard about it on the radio--fills a nice gap.
There are so many wine guides out there (I read Parker, Clive Coates and books on terrior, to give some an idea of my interest level) but there are few if any quality beer guides.
This book is well written, entertaining, makes a great gift for a lot of different types of people (a no brainer for the holidays as a gift, since it's unique and fun.)
On the critical side--a solid and excellent look at beer, period. The most sophisticated beer drinkers will appreciate a ton in this book.
Love it--definitely recommended.
