seems like maybe there is a niche here. Either for a whole new text or translations of existing texts. I know the micro/craft brewery movement is starting to pick up steam down in Mexico and parts of europe traditionally sparse in good beer so the homebrew community can't be far behind!

Hi All ~ There has been interest off and on for a Spanish translation of How to Brew and other Brewers Publications titles but nothing that has come to fruition.  The rights are indeed available for a Spanish version.  Currently we have Designing Great Beers translated into Korean and shortly into Italian and How to Brew will be coming out in Russian soon.  There is also growing interest in Brazil to have Portuguese versions.  So don't rule this idea out but it's a matter of being matched with a motivated Spanish language publisher to facilitate.

Cheers~

Kristi,

I'm interested in getting a French translation published. I've sent you a PM - please let me know what we can do to help.
