I've been brewing mead for about a year now (so I have one batch still aging, and have made JAO twice and a couple of other quick recipes), and I'm intersted in making some beer this fall. Before I dive in head-first and clueless like I did with mead a year ago, can somebody recommend a good resource or two for beer-brewing basics? I'm looking for both theory and technique, something along the lines of Ken Schramm's "the compleat meadmaker," but for beer. I think a web primer would probably be fine, if there's a good one out there, since I'm sure a lot of the basics transfer.
Good recipe sources also appreciated.
