Nice cover - a blown up portion of Manet's "Bar at the Folies-Bergeres." Given the audience, the beer is a much better choice than the bored barmaid.
That said, I don't think that a 500 page mini-book is "to style" according to the BJCP and BA guidelines for beer books. Properly speaking, it's more likely to fall into the category of "doorstop," "technical manual" or the nearly extinct styles of "telephone book" or "mail order catalog." :)
at a work in progress.
Surely Bitter! should be a megabook.
ReplyDeleteWho am I to make your children go shoeless. It will look nice next to Porter.
ReplyDeleteIs this the official release of the first edition or as you state a work in progress?
ReplyDeleteFirst Stater, this is a work in progress. Not sure when the official release will be.

Thomas, the final version will be a Mega Book. I had to change plans after I got past 400 pages.
