I know this has been brought up before, but hey, what hasn't? Anyway, I've had Moonlight Brewing's Porter that used redwood tips instead of hops, and I've heard some of you use spruce tips. I was wondering what other herbs and/or stuff you've used to bitter a beer without hops. I have about 3lbs of indian corn I got from a local organic place and I was thinking of trying something similar to the chicha from the show everyone is talking about. No, I'm not gonna chew it or spit in it. I was going to germinate the grain. At first I considered hops but then I figured it would be a good opportunity to use other ingredients. So what's your take? What have you used? What do you recommend I use? What's your pin number? Etc.
