The book:

The Brewtal Truth Guide to Extreme Beers is ‘a hugely entertaining read’ (The Vancouver Province) that describes and rates more than 100 unusual beers from around the world and draws parallels to the music scene, with profiles on craft-beer-loving metal musicians and extreme craft beer brewers.

‘Brewers these days are taking beer to extremes, and Tepedelen is just the writer to introduce drinkers to severe suds.’ – Minneapolis Star Tribune

‘A journey through beer that treads a narrow path between creativity and craziness.’ – The Vancouver Province

‘Definite classic potential.’ – Invisible Oranges
