RateBeer in conjunction with Hachette Book Group are giving away five free copies of The Man’s Book to people posting in this thread. This is a great idea as a graduation gift, something for yourself or significant other, Father’s Day gift, or for the groomsmen.

There’s a substantial section on beverages and beer with greater depth and breadth than I’ve seen in other books of this type. The author includes a nod to ratebeer.com in his essential web sites.

Winners must have a US or Canadian shipping address (please add this to your profile - we don’t sell your addresses nor junk mail you). No PO boxes please.

We will freeze the thread Thursday, May 28 and announce the winners shortly thereafter.

Enjoy!

The Man’s Book
The Essential Guide for the Modern Man

by Thomas Fink

Being modern and manly in today’s world isn’t always easy.

Do you know how to tie a bow-tie, mix a martini, or make a potato gun?

Do you know when to get married and how to break up, or the difference between a bock beer and a bitter?

Do you know which urinal to choose or how to start a fire with a Coke can?

The answers to every man’s burning questions are within these pages, from the morning wet shave to the whiskey night-cap, from hunting deer with a .30-06 to wooing women like 007. At a time when the sexes are muddled and masculinity is marginalized, THE MAN’S BOOK unabashedly celebrates maleness. Organized by subject in a man-logical way, it’s the go-to guide for anyone with a Y chromosome.

Even though I’m dangerously close to being too manly already, I’m in.
