DFH Chicha

They are brewing this years batch today...

Id love to try that...

even though it's to be boiled...I don't think I'd want to drink something that has been sloshed around in the mouths of someone else before brewing it

Yeah wtf is this, do they really need to be that authentic? It's just one of those things were it could be safe and sanitary, but still...I'm not hurting for beers that unique just yet...

mark me down in the "screw this" category....

prechewed ingredients? I do not see what the big fuss is over, BMC has been bottling post drank beer for years...:cross:

Hmmm, I always thought traditional chicha was fermented with the saliva and not boiled at all, they probably have researched it more than I . . . . . It appears it is only a slight percentage of corn that was ABC. So you only have a slight chance of something surviving the boil and a slight chance of getting a slight infection slightly. I'll probably try it, it's probably gonna be $12 a 4 pack or $8 a bomber though.

sounds pretty cool, and i give them props to using traditional methods.

You gotta admit, they do some crazy **** at Dogfish!

I think its a brewpub only batch...

They brought some to GABF last year. It was ok but nothing I'd get more than a sample of.
