Yep, that's exactly right. The JavaBeans spec says that for a property "nameOfBeer", the setter is:
public void setNameOfBeer(String value) and the getter is: public String getNameOfBeer() The case matters. However, some templating languages (like Velocity) will compensate for you (JSTL doesn't). It gets a little weirder. If you have a boolean value, say "lightBeer", there are two possible getters: public boolean getLightBeer() public boolean isLightBeer() Since it's possible to have both of those methods on a class, one of them takes precedence over the other (I don't remember which offhand).
