"A volume of Brewing Science, which has long been awaited.... We consider it one of the most complete in contents and novel in arrangement that has yet been published.... Will command a large sale."—The Brewers' Journal.
"The appearance of a work such as this serves to remind us of the enormously rapid advances made in our knowledge of the Scientific Principles underlying the Brewing Processes.... Dr. Sykes' work will undoubtedly be of the greatest assistance, not merely to Brewers, but to all Chemists and Biologists interested in the problems which the Fermentation Industries present."—The Analyst.
"The publication of Dr. Sykes' masterly treatise on the art of Brewing is quite an event in the Brewing World.... Deserves our warmest praise.... A better guide than Dr. Sykes could hardly be found."—County Brewers' Gazette.
