FOREWORD

This is the final book in the "Simple Home Brewing" Series. There is so much you can do withhome brewing, with so many different recipes to inspire your imagination. This book is by far mymost favourite recipes. I love spices, especially chilli, lemon and lime in beer. I hope that theserecipes can become some of your favourite as well.

Just like all of my other books, I have made it a big point to be as simple as possible. Nocomplications or excessive time frames. Just having fun and making beer. Like my other books Ihave added some normally very complicated recipes and simplified the process. You can tell theones that are normally complicated as they have a lot of ingredients but just like my other booksmade simple.

I hope you enjoy this book just as much as I enjoyed making it.
