HOLY HELL!!!
Only had high alpha hops for my latest stout, so.......like an idiot.....
I only thought of the bitterness. SO....
I only boiled the oz of columbus for 30 minutes.
This resulted in an amazing amount of hop flavor, and it is bitter as PHUCK.(for a stout)
The kerosene/rocket fuel shock only came with the first few sips, Kinda like when you are expecting water from an opaque bottle, and it turns out to be coke.
It doesn't taste bad, but your tongue is like WTF????
it is one tongue bashing brew, but I am developing a taste for it. Not unlike arrogant bastard.
i had 1/2 gallon left over when the keg was filled, so I syphoned that and a healthy bit of yeast into the primary of my caramel amber instead of pitching yeast.....
Now it is bitter as phuck and tastes pretty damned good.
WHAT HAPPENED? SO much hop bitterness, and SO much citrusy hop flavor.
