Johnson clearly knows his stuff and he covers the world of wine pretty well given that this is a pocket-sized edition.

The book was too compact for me though and I think it suffers from too many abbreviations and too many bullet-point entries. I accept that your expectations shouldn't be too high if you are buying a compendium, as compromises do need to be made. For me, however, it was slightly difficult to find my way around and get the best out of what the book has to offer.

It must also be said that the editing and proof-reading were well below expectations and, indeed, very disappointing.

That said, you will still come away a lot wiser with this book so one important purpose is served.

I get the GBG every year as a CAMRA member and I have to agree with B R Drinker "S.A.D." to a certain extent. There is also the problem that some places don't get visited very often by whoever chooses which pubs go in the Guide for that area whereas other do (look at the number of entries for St Albans!). Plus some pubs in the past have been marked down and taken out of the Guide for reasons which escape me -- I suspect that "poor beer quality" sometimes means "I didn't like the look of the other drinkers".

Some pubs will never get in the guide (McMullens managed pubs spring to mind as they use cask breathers) but the absence of an entry does not automatically mean a pub is poor.

Having said all that, it is invaluable ... Read More:
