Hello guys, first time here. I literally just finished brewing my first batch. Partial grain oatmeal stout that I'm really hoping turns out semi-decent.
In any case, I had a quick question. A while back, someone told me beer has a different buzz than hard alcohol because of the hops. He said that hops is mildly psychoactive, or something along those lines. I don't know if he was misinformed, but to me it does seem like beer gives a different buzz when compared to the other forms of alcohol. Is this just placebo, or is there something to it?
