Don't they care about their reputations as (so-called) beer experts? Don't they care about taking people's money, and, more importantly, trust, and doing a lazy, shitty job? The "facts" they get wrong, the omissions that they make are virtually always really easy things to check, but they just don't bother - it's easier to just make the shit up.<br />I feel sorry for the publishers of this discredited book - they trusted these jerks and paid them good money in good faith, and they've ended up with a lousy book.Rodnoreply@blogger.com
