About this ebook

Embark on a craft beer journey—from the science and art of brewing to glassware, storing, and tasting—from the men behind The Craft Beer Channel.

Beer has come a long way in the 6,000 years since the first taste. The legends of the craft beer industry have made sure everyone's within reach of the perfect pint. But how do you get the right brew for you? And can you learn to make a beer that will add to the lager legacy?

Welcome to Beer School, brought to you by the heroes of YouTube sensation The Craft Beer Channel, a guide to everything you need to know about the wide and wonderful beers of the world. In Beer School, Jonny and Brad explain the intricacies of the finest artisan craft brews including: ales, lagers, porters, stouts, IPSs, and bitters.

The lads have the inside scoop on everything from hop varieties and barrel aging, to serving temperatures and glassware. Beer School helps you learn how to make beer and how to get the most out of every sip. You will learn about: grain, mash, water, hops, boil, yeast, fermentation, serving, storing, pouring, and tasting.

"Brad and Jonny make understanding beer easy and nearly as fun as drinking it." —James Watt, founder of BrewDog

"It's like sitting down with Jonny and Brad and having a few beers with them! Good fun, funny, interesting and you never quite know what's coming next." —Mark Dredge, author of The Beer Bucket List

About the author

Jonny is a writer and now (apparently) filmmaker who has had a short but glittering career in blagging freebies. After an unsuccessful period of being a music journalist, and an even less successful stint as a real journalist, he got a job writing for Jamie Oliver as deputy editor of jamieoliver.com. It was there that his love of food, beer and Youtube collided and he's never looked back. He is now one of the UK's most recognisable beer experts, writing for national newspapers, magazines and now his own books.A graduate of Central Saint Martin's School of Art and Design, Brad has spent over a decade working throughout the creative industries in London as a graphic designer, illustrator, art director, animator and branding expert. His clients have included the BBC, Channel 4, Jamie Oliver, Vice and MTV. With a love of adventure, travel and food, the burgeoning craft beer market in the UK resonated with his experiences in America and he launched the Craft Beer Channel with Jonny to hopefully become a part of the developing scene. Brad hopes to one day pack it all in and open up a cheeky little brew pub, where he can live the good life kicking out the jams and perfecting some stonking IPAs with his mates.
