A comprehensive two- volume set that describes the science and technology involved in the production and analysis of alcoholic beverages.

The Handbook of Alcoholic Beverages tracks the major fermentation process, and the major chemical, physical and technical processes that accompany the production of the world's most familiar alcoholic drinks. Indigenous beverages and small-scale production are alsoc.
