An entertaining and informative look into the millions of beer activists fighting corporate power and environmental destruction, this field guide details how to create solutions as delicious and successful as they are radical and unexpected. Tracing the path of how beer activists have become a powerful force in shaping beer-drinking culture and the cotemporary beer industry, this book chronicles the history of workers in the beer industry, explores how homebrewers and microbrewers are building community and preventing climate change, and explains how “farmer brewers” are modeling sustainable agriculture. In an era when a handful of top-down global corporations sell most of the world’s beer, this resource provides information on the homebrewing process, forming homebrewing clubs, and opening small-scale breweries and neighborhood brewpubs, as well as finding the best local, sustainable, worker-friendly beers.

A precise and comprehensive description of the problems encountered at times by all winemakers and wine judges, Wine Faults covers the differences between flaws and faults, how flavors develop, how taste works and how it differs from smell in the evaluation of wine. From there it tackles the increasing problems resulting from high alcohol wines as well as volatile acidity found in high pH wines common in some warm grape-growing regions. It also deals with the vegetal qualities of cool viticultural regions usually caused by methoxypyrazines and the occasional lady beetle. Every microbial infection found in today’s wineries is fully described and arrayed in full color slides. Dense as the material may seem, the book is written in a manner that the layperson, or even the quality control professional who forgot that he ever took Organic Chemistry, can understand.
