So after a few homebrewing escapades, my friend and I were just wondering what the importance of lacing was. We searched on Google and found numerous results on how to judge beer as well as how to improve lacing, but didn't find anything on why it's actually important. The closest reason we found was that lacing determines how clean the glass is and how much care was taken while brewing the beer, but this didn't really answer our questions.
We wanted a more scientific reason as to why lacing is important. Does lacing indicate that certain chemical compounds are present in the beer that improve flavor or something like that? Or is it just for aesthetics?
