🤣🤣🤣 (A gueuze is a type of lambic, a Belgian beer).
Interesting. When I drink beer at home, I pour it from the bottle into a chilled glass that I keep in my freezer. But now that I know this, I'm not going to do that anymore.
Unlike plants that have male and female parts on the same plant, entire hop plants are either male or female. While both "genders" of plants produce hop flowers, the male plants will pollinate the females to produce seeds, which makes them undesirable for brewing. That's why every plant on a hop farm is female.
In my opinion, any use of hops for anything other than beer is sinful, and is a waste of perfectly good hops.
Yes, I'm drinking an Oktoberfest in September. Call the cops! See if I give a fuck!😡
I just had to go for a brew after I found this bargain! Note what‘s in the background 🙂
pickI am a craft beer enthusiast, so the subject matter was great. The writing was approachable and entertaining. The tone got a little pretentious, but on the whole this was an enjoyable book.
