Charlie Bamforth’s book, _Beer is Proof God Loves Us: Reaching for the Soul of Beer and Brewing_, normally $26, is free today (5/30) at the Amazon Kindle store. You don’t need a Kindle to get it either. You can download a free Kindle app for your computer, phone, or nearly any device. The book is available at [http://amzn.to/jyKojc](http://amzn.to/jyKojc). Kindle apps are at [http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=amb\_link\_352814002\_3?ie=UTF8&docId=1000493771&pf\_rd\_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf\_rd\_s=center-6&pf\_rd\_r=1TBYEFREGHDW5QNPSQDZ&pf\_rd\_t=1401&pf\_rd\_p=1279039382&pf\_rd\_i=1000426311](http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html/ref=amb_link_352814002_3?ie=UTF8&docId=1000493771&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-6&pf_rd_r=1TBYEFREGHDW5QNPSQDZ&pf_rd_t=1401&pf_rd_p=1279039382&pf_rd_i=1000426311). This was free back in January, but I know some of you missed it. Who said there are no second chances? ---

> [@](#): > > Thanks. I’ve finished it. Some nice insite but I don’t think I learned anything useful.  :-\ Listening to an interview with Charlie Bamforth back when the book first came out, I’m pretty sure he didn’t intend this to be a brewing text when he wrote it. But it sure is entertaining!
