Remember to drink responsibly(ish) and not be that guy...
So glad to finally see this video! It was 100% worth the wait. Thank you for putting this hop tour togther.
I live in Maryland and a few years ago a unique hop (Monocacy) was found on a veterinarian's chicken coop. It works well in older beer styles (ESB, Altbier, Marzen). Breweries are playing with it, growers are crossbreeding it. Hopefully something comes of it.
Great video by the way. I do enjoy beers made with Kent Goldings.
But can you brew Natty Boh with it, hun? 😂😂
Nice video. Looking forward to the next instalment, as well as seeing the power turned on to those conicals behind 🎉
My soul was a bit sad after the Love & Beet fest.. but also buoyed by all the great times. So.. balance ⚖️ ?
Learnt a lot! Really interesting about the history. Not sure if I missed it, but there was (is) a historical beer style called gruit that used botanicals rather than hops.. Can't say I've had one, but I think stinging nettles may have also been used? Very close heritage to hops too, of course!
Indeed there was/is. Gruit refers to a mix of herbs that were often used to flavour the beer before hops were really used. Can't say I've ever truly had one I've enjoyed much, but there are some great wild ales that are hopless and use herbs instead.
My supplier in Switzerland just started stocking Harlequin, cant wait to try it!!!
Well done! This is a fantastic video, and this is why I love beer. One element can bring so much variety and create so many different styles-now multiply that by the other ingredients of beer, from just the water type to the multitude of grains and then the yeasts to bring it all together in all its combinations. The cross-pollination of geography, and what I guess will be brought by the next episode with New World hops, makes the drink we love so varied and exciting. For all the pomp and celebration it gets, wine really has nothing compared to brewing 🍻
Let's not forget about the hop growing juggernaut that is eastern Canada! LOL. Nothing to rival anyone else, but we do have probably a half dozen or so hop yards here in the Maritimes.
Great video! Love this type or beer content!
Doesn’t hurt to feature a North West beer for North West Chinook hops. Just a suggestion (East Coast IPAs have a place too). It’s like using hops from the UK and featuring a beer in Italy using those hops
I understand the point but I chose this beer (although don't talk too much about it) because it was one of the earliest beers to use Citra, and is one of my fav presentations of it.
Saw your T-shirt and searched for it and just bought one from TMM. Was trying not to beer shop but couldn’t resist that one. 👍
Awesome! Thank you!
Interesting aroma descriptions, i enjoyed your summaries. I hadnt heard of the Mandarina before, makes me want to brew a Vienna lager with Mandarina, or even a Kolsch maybe
Kolsch would be dynamite!
Incredible video mate. Loved it. So helpful to know why or what I’m drinking lol.
Do the hops have actual anti sceptic qualities or is it the brewers are using hops themselves instead of other ingredients that are sceptic?
They are actually antiseptic in themselves, and could be used to preserve anything really - but most things wouldn't suit the fact that those antiseptic acids are so bitter.
Very good video
Yes
Hops were added to the beers in India for the officers, to hide the flavour.
The "hopped for travel to India" has been a myth for too long now really...
@zeveroarerules I have no idea where this has come from but it is easily disproved through....hundreds of written accounts from the time. For one, hops were added to beers in great quantities long before IPA was created (in porter). Second, we have countless recipes from British brewery records showing the hopping rates. Thirdly, where would they have got the hops from in India? They were not grown there at the time. They have had to ship them WITH the beers, which would make no sense at all.
It feels like I’ve just heard my first beer-based conspiracy theory.
@@BiscuitGeoff Consbeeracy?
I object to the use of ‘marijuana smell’ as hemp like hops produces many terpenes, and therefore the smell of marijuana can vary a lot as well.
Either way I love those types of beers and wish there were more of them that were more potent
Dank works
I take your point but it's undeniable that marijuana also has its own distinctive smell that goes across all varieties - just as hops, apples, Grapes, barleys do. If someone said their marijuana smelled liked hops I'd probably be like "I know what you mean!"
@@TheCraftBeerChannel and it really can smell like it! If anyone knows of some in BC Canada let me know lol. More dank!
