Win

 

[emjay]

Oh Christ... why do I keep guessing?

 

[bottlebomber]

[FromZwolle]

dunkelweiss

 

[bullinachinashop]

Roggenbier

 

[barrooze]

[bottlebomber]

[emjay]

[two_hearted]

[bottlebomber]

This beer contains an adjunct that not only defines the style, but the name.

 

[emjay]

RyePA

 

[FromZwolle]

pumpkin ale.

 

[bottlebomber]

pumpkin ale.

thats it!

 

[bottlebomber]

Ill have to add, I'm not crazy about the stuff either. Which is kinda lame, because this was my first pour off of 6 gallons. Hopefully it does something in the next couple months...

 

[FromZwolle]

thats it!

well, my version just got into the keg a week ago, so i pulled a google image of the recipe that i used as a starting point for mine. :

 

[FromZwolle]

the clue: the absence of one ingredient is particular to the creation of the style.

 

[bottlebomber]

Huh... german pilsner?

 

[emjay]

the clue: the absence of one ingredient is particular to the creation of the style.

I don't entirely understand the clue (the way you worded it could be taken in several entirely different directions), but I'm going to guess...

CAP

 

[FromZwolle]

I don't entirely understand the clue

good. you don't need to win again.

second clue: it's an ale.

 

[LVBen]

lambic

 

[emjay]

lambic

I thought about that, but it just doesn't look right, and the first clue would technically be wrong.

 

[emjay]

Sahti

 

[LVBen]

I thought about that, but it just doesn't look right, and the first clue would technically be wrong.

It is the only thing I could think of that even comes close to the clue, because in some sense, you could say yeast is absent from the ingredients that you add.

 

[two_hearted]

gruit

True... that's why it crossed my mind as well. But the clue didn't restrict it to things you add, and it's definitely not absent from the beer, so I dunno. Wouldn't be the first time a bad clue's been given

 

[mcbethenstein]

Gluten Free Beer? (Barley or wheat being what is missing)....I was gonna guess sahti too, but emjay beat me to it.

 

[FromZwolle]

no to all. the last guess is on the right track.

 

[emjay]

Chicha

 

[LVBen]

Rye ale

 

[FromZwolle]

Chicha

not that extreme.
