My bookshelf is filled with pretty common brewing books. Not too advanced either...
- How to Brew by John Palmer
- Brewing Classic Styles by Jamil Zainasheff and John Palmer
- For The Love of Hops: The Practical Guide to Aroma, Bitterness and the Culture of Hops by Stan Hieronymus
- Yeast: The Practical Guide to Beer Fermentation by Jamil Zainasheff and Chris White
- Water: A Comprehensive Guide for Brewers by John Palmer and Colin Kaminski
- Brew Like a Monk: Trappist, Abbey, and Strong Belgian Ales and How to Brew Them by Stan Hieronymus
- Farmhouse Ales: Culture and Craftsmanship in the Belgian Tradition by Phil Markowski
- Wild Brews: Culture and Craftsmanship in the Belgian Tradition by Jeff Sparrow
- Designing Great Beers: The Ultimate Guide to Brewing Classic Beer Styles by Ray Daniels
- Radical Brewing by Randy Mosher
- The Complete Joy of Homebrewing by Charlie Papazian
- Bock by Darryl Richman
- German Wheat Beer by Eric Warner
- Brewing with Wheat: The 'Wit' & 'Weizen' of World Wheat Beer Styles by Stan Hieronymus
- Some more from the Classic Beer Style series.
Since I lack a background in chemistry (and the fact that I'm not a native English speaker) the "Water" book is a very though read. I think I will try to get some better knowledge about chemistry before I start reading this book again.
"Wild Brews" only arrived last week, so I will start reading it over the next few days.
Regarding my wishlist: I'm waiting for the fourth (revised) edition of Charlie Papazian's classic. "Brewing with Wheat" might get removed as it doesn't get very good reviews. The "Classic Beer Style" series is almost a complete must-have, but some of the books (I think "Stout") aren't well received. Therefor I first want "Bock" and "German Wheat Beer" on the shelf (as I intend to brew some of these styles pretty soon).
