    Dry hopping while carbing

    We just put an ESB in the keg to chill before carbing. SWMBO saw a quarter ounce of cluster hops in the fridge so we put it in a hop ball and into the keg. Will this have much of an effect on the beer?

    "Dark beer"

    When I do my missionary work for drinking good beer one response I get a lot is "I don't like dark beer." My response is to say that there is really no such thing as "dark beer", there are beers that are dark in color but there is no category as "dark beer". Am I correct? I know that stouts...
