I am thinking of making my next beer with a little bit of ocean water. I know this sounds absurd, but hopefully its doable. I live on the ocean, and would love to do something unique. What if I collected 1 gallon or a 1/2 gallon of water from the Atlantic, and somehow sanitized it? I imagine that the evaporation and increased saline will be an issue. I suppose I would have to add this late in the boil or at flame out.
Anyone have any take on this? I would be doing an extract recipe, but any suggestions on style, etc are appreciated. I thought I remember someone telling me that Amstel Brights in Aruba are made from the sea water...But I might be incorrect. I also understand this might turn out to be more of a novelty than anything else.
Thanks!
