      I could be wrong but pretty sure St. Ides stopped making beer under that name in the 90s. Steel Reserve was their replacement. Steel Reserve is much worse. Not sure if St. Ides has made a comeback or whatever, but it was better than SR.

  • @Ashen_one89
    @Ashen_one89 3 месяца назад +36

    Skunk smell and taste comes from something called "Light Strike" it occurs when light breaks down the isohumulone compounds in the beer which are produced when hops are boiled. I think it also has a lot to do with the fact that hops are closely related to weed as well.
    Light Strike is most common in green or clear bottles because more light gets through to the beer.
    I learned this in Chicago when I lived there and fell in love with the breweries out in the Midwest!
