Something just popped into my head while doing my (inside) brew tonight. This is a question for those of you who brew outdoors and have a heightened sense of taste for your brew...
Can you detect any difference in the same recipe brewed outside in the spring from that in any other month? I'm just wondering if the pollen in the air gives any noticeable flavor to the brew or not. I know it's not exposed for long, and probably doesn't get much pollen in the wort, just wondering. I know in my area, a few hours after I wash my truck in the spring, it's covered in a noticeable dusting of pollen.
