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?

Beerrific said:The folks that wrote this book have a homebrew shop in CT:

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.
skeeordye11 said:First, just the recipes in general. I'm a big fan of American beer anyways. The North American book give the recipe in a partial mash format and then has notes on the side for extract w/ grains as well as all-grain. The clone brews book gives the recipe in extract form with the partial and all-grain notes on the side.

I have the Clone Brews book, and noticed that many of the recipes include cane sugar as an adjunct. I just have reservations about using sugar; wondering if anyone has tried any of the recipes in the book that include it.
I know the feeling, Brother...They're both good, but the BYO has many more recipes for less money, great value!
