Once again a fantastic source of information.
Just about every brewery in the UK that produces real ale in a bottle is here with details about the brewery and the beers in an easy to read format. The writing is informative without being anorak-y, a good size and a hardback cover means that this will remain a useful book.... until the next edition.
A real "must-have" for anyone interested in beer.

This book makes you feel like a kiddie in a sweetie shop - so many fantastic beers and the only questions is "Where can I buy them?"
Written by Jeff Evans - an expert on real ale in a bottle - this book has the authority lacking from some other tomes on the subject.
It's only a year since I bought the last edition and the amount of change in the marketplace is phenomenal which made it well worth buying this one.
If you are looking for a present for someone who likes beer this is just the thing. The writing is clear and authoritative and takes the reader gently through the 600+ real ales available in bottle in Britain today.
Buy this book - you won't be disappointed.

I wish I could get half the beers described in this new book from my local off-licence.
It's like reading a good cookbook - your mouth starts watering as you realise quite how many bottle conditioned beers there are available.
Another fantastic book from a really knowledgeable author.
Put that together with the fact it's from CAMRA and you know it's going to be good.
