Brewing A Beer Using Gatorade Zero | Will It Brü?

- Martin is brewing a fruity sour beer but replacing all of his brewing water with... Gatorade Zero. Lots and lots of Gatorade Zero. Then he's making adjustments to try to get the mash to convert and the beer to sour. Will a Gatorade Gose actually brew?

It was really surprising how good this beer turned out. Can't wait to see what you come up with next 😄 Cheers Martin 🍻
Norm's tastebuds need to be preserved and studied by science. He's such an amazing taster
You added so much calcium that you created your own pH buffer. calcium reacts with lactic acid to calcium lactate which buffer extremely well at around 4,0. We had the same problem at work
Aha, this explains a lot!
I came to comment the exact same thing. The salts in the electrolyte could contribute to the buffering as well. A follow up experiment would be interesting!
Now brew a beer and replace the water with beer. There is actually historical recipe for a table beer that is along this line.
Excellent Substitute for Table Beer.
As small beer is apt to become sour in warm weather, a
pleasant beer may be made, by adding to a bottle of porter
ten quarts of water, and a pound of brown sugar or molasses.
After they have been well mixed, pour the liquid into
bottles and place them, loosely corked, in a cool cellar. In
two or three days it will be fit for use. A spoonful of
ginger, added to the mixture, renders it more lively and
agreeable to the taste.

I’ve wanted to do this with bud light for awhile. “Upcycling bud light” or something.
@@FermentationAdventuresthat makes sense cause budlight is basically water💀
@@EvanReichert yep, that's what beer is
A local brewery, Mispillion River Brewing, has been doing "Sports Berliner" with "gatorade" for a few years. They actually aren't too bad, though it's been awhile since I've tried them.
You can grow your own bacteria by doing a 3 day sour with a hand full of grains in 500ml of water in a flask on a hotplate preferably a heated stirplate. After three days it's ready to pitch. The bacteria, mostly Lacto, is much more interesting than most one note Lacto additions.
Martin, you're a mad man. I love it
New product offering from the Gatorade company!
Brawndo was(maybe still is?) a commercially available beer that was made based on powerade, so not quite the first ever to try it, but certainly a fun concept. I would however change a few things on your kettle souring with good belly, specifically, I'd drop that mash pH target to 5.2 maximum to let that beer dry out to a .006-8, and will also set you up better for the souring, then add lactic acid before the good belly to get the pH about 4.4, final pH should drop to about 3.0 - 3.2 and get you a lot more zing
Yup good points. I’ve done the pre souring with lacto with other batches but usually Good Belly chews through this stuff without help.
That seems like a really fun experiment! I’d be interested to try it
One time I brewed beer with Coke... the unanimous comment at my local brew club was: "Stick to grains, Vesko!" It went down the drain...

Martin House Brewing in Fort Worth tried a lemon-lime Gatorade beer one summer. It was fairly awful. So my wife and were intrigued when we saw the video's title. I'm glad it worked out for you.
Some Aussie researchers brewed a beer years ago with something akin to Pedialyte to try and prevent hangovers. I guess brewing a gose with Gatorade is roughly the same as that?
The brewery I work at has made a line of imperial gose with different gatorade flavors for a few years now! We use the powder mix though, cool to see different takes on a fun adjunct
Oh wow good to know it’s not just me 😃
I would never have thought of trying something like this. I expected that preservatives in the gatorade would stop the yeast from doing its thing
well now I just want a dill pickle beer
may as well make it dill and garlic
“A tipper”, i’m stealing that!
Need to use beet juice or some other juice. I had a brewery Bare Bones Brewing, now closed, that had a beer called Pink. They used beet juice and created a gluton free beer.
I’ve tried apple but not beets. Interesting.
Well, it is what plants crave
What a cool experiment!
My buddy here in South Korea did an entire makgeolli (korean rice wine, not quite sake) with Pocari Sweat.
very cool!
This is gold....or orange I guess. Sounds like something I would distill 😂
I am always amazed by what you accomplish!
Makes me wonder, could you concoct a beer using Dr. Pepper? 🤔
Biggest issue with soft drinks, is usually they contain potassium sorbate (Preservative) which makes it difficult to get it to ferment as this kills yeast
Since the artificial sweetener isn't fermented, doesn't that make for a pretty sweet final beer (perhaps why Norm noted sweet balsamic)?
So I really enjoy brewing and the process but I am finding that I can't handle the alcohol content anymore. Can you do some videos on how to make good beer but finding good ways to replace the alcohol taste?
Are those just picnic taps? If so, what kind and do they work well? Wanting to move from bottling to kegging but wondering if I may be able to gradually make the swap with a chest freezer and picnic taps first, spreading out the cost of building out a full-on keezer…
Now get this - make a really good beer by using really bad beer instead of water!
I have an idea for you that I can't try myself with my current set up. Dip hop vs dry hop. Do a bittering charge to 15 IBU then split batch 8g/l comparing the flavor and aroma. And also simplicity factor?
youre a genius
I wonder if you could use Philly sour?
Genius :D
Good ol r/PrisonHooch has been doing this for years!
Ok next make a chocolate stout with Mr Beast Bars and Prime drinks!
OMG yes!!!
Yes! This idea is a winner.
Do the plants still crave it though?
Please make a Krefelder by brewing an Altbier with Coke Zero :D
There was a time back in the day I was quite fond of combining Guinness with Coke
Biggest issue with soft drinks, is usually they contain potassium sorbate (Preservative) which makes it difficult to get it to ferment as this kills yeast
hey martin whats the temp range on the chest freezer you have ? is it a magic chief freezer?
wonder if you could do a milk stout with milk and not water
Oh my. So much curdling!
Oh you're right. I spoke too soon wasn't even thinking that. How about a pickle lager?
Why not use regular gatorade and let the yeast eat that?
Martin's been on r/prisonhooch again
Great video! Just curious…why Gatorade Zero instead of regular Gatorade?
This being a gose i wanted to keep the alcohol content quite low. The sugar in a regular Gatorade would have given me something stronger than I was looking for.
@@TheBrulosophyShow makes total sense!
Honestly, and I am sorry to be negative, but my first thought was you must be running out of ideas. I'm glad it was deemed a success, pickle aroma or no, but what are brewers supposed to learn from this experiment? How many of us are really interested in brewing with gatorade and all of those chemicals/preservatives? Not to mention the expense of purchasing gatorade. Personally, I'd be much more interested in an experiment using Philly Sour vs Sourvisiae in making a gose/sour (using water).
Sometimes we do things just because it's fun! And for better or worse, we're far... very far... from running out of ideas :)
Fair enough. Fun is good, but I primarily view, listen, and Patreon to Brulosophy so I can LEARN and become a better brewer. AND I have learned much from you (thank you!), so maybe fun is OK now and again. I can always skip the "fun" ones. But my vote is for exbeeriments that help home brewers become better, FWIW.
Has an experiment been done to determine the difference (if any) between doing kettle sour vs adding lactic acid to get down to 3.5ph before the boil? Curious as it would be a great time saving
Did you consider using powder gatorate mix?
I wanted to use Zero and I think that’s only in liquid form?
Gatorade zero is available in powder form.
I'm not sure if this is mad genius, or just mad
Yes
😂
Regarding Bru lab, I tried to listen once but there was literally 5 minutes of ads at the start . I get that ads support it, but that's way too much and way too soon.
Hi there! As producer/editor of The Brü Lab, I can assure you it has only a single ~30 second pre-roll ad (from Imperial Yeast), which is very intentional. If you actually heard 5 minutes of ads prior to the start, the only thing I can think of is your particular podcast server is placing them for their own profit, which I believe is illegal. Please do reach out if ever you run into a similar issue, as I'll be sure to nip it in the bud immediately!
Like you said, advertising is a necessary "evil" (even though we promote companies/products we actually believe in) that allows us to keep producing the show. We do our best to keep everything balanced, hence my concern about other interjecting their own into our podcast.
Cheers,
Marshall
@@Marshall_Brulosophy I'll give it another shot and let you know if it comes up again.
Try saying gose correctly and using the word for the negative number rather than the letter in the alphabet and I might be able to listen without wanting to scream at the screen!
