Über lacing

Was hitting the IPA hard the other night, finished my mug and was amazed at the thick but many zebra stripes on my glass especially by the bottom. It looked a little better in person.

I love good lacing! I know my first brew (an english bitter) won't have that much, but my ambition is to make a super lacing beer one day. Congrats.

It's a beautiful thing. Seems dry-hopping promotes that.

On my IIPA the lacing was huge. It was like there was a party on the side of the glass.

How does one go about to get such a beautiful thing in a glass of beer??

Thats awesome, what ingredients causes good head retention like that? I brewed an Arrogant Bastard and a week after I bottled, it tasted great but didn't have any head at all. I know it needs more time, but I was expecting at least something...

Beer clean glass make a difference. Lacing is just an indication of the proteins remaining in the foam. Some malts help such as carapils. It may also be an indication of a proper mash. Also has to do with a slew of other variables like ph and so on. Here's a beer I just drank (a minute ago)!

Can you tell what I was doing online?

Oh, and it was my clone of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Oh my. Great brew! I dry hopped it this time for more pronounced hop aroma. Just 1.5 oz, but it made a difference.

Hey thats me, I'm famous, . . . . . I'd rather be looking at a dranken beer like you though, at work another 2.5hrs.

I made a Golden Ale and let it age for about a month in the bottle and had lacing. I just told my friend yeah this beer is good and this lacing thing is suppose to be a good thing not sure why...so why is lacing awesome?

Didn't your beer spill out holding it sideways like that?
