Default Is this the same thing as BYO's 150 Clone Brews?

This showed up as recommended by Amazon in my inbox. Is it the same thing as the BYO clone issue, just published as a book?

No, it's different. I just got the clone issue in the mail ($5, $2 shipping). Lots of great recipes in it.

They're both good, but the BYO has many more recipes for less money, great value!

150 > 150 ?

The partial list of recipes on Amazon and some of the reviews on the book suggest that it leans much more heavily on mainstream commercial beers (particularly light lagers) than the BYO mag, which is much more micro-focused.

That said, if I looked at the book half as much as I look at the BYO clone issue, it'd be well worth $10.

It's a good book. I have found several recipes. It also has some good reference sections for the price.

Thanks for the help. Just bought the BYO issue instead. I have no need to brew Heiny and Coors.

Point is, more bang for your buck with BYO.

IMHO, betwen the two, I prefer the North American Clone Brews Book. I have both, but I have used the North American book much more.

The folks that wrote this book have a homebrew shop in CT:
http://www.maltose.com/

They sell kits for all their clones and have them all listed on the website. They are writing another book too.

If you check the back issue of Basic Brewing Radio..."How to Brew Clones" one...they are interviewed. It is interesting because most of their clones in the first book were trial and error...they would give recipes to their customer, ask them to brew it, and then taste it and change it if needed.
