I've been feeling a bit sick for the past few weeks so I've had to limit my beer consumption unfortunately. So I decided to take this time to write an entry on some of the terms I write about to describe beer in the reviews and how they relate to the ingredients within a beer so that you, the reader, may be able to start distinguishing the flavor profile of a brew. Not only will you be able to understand what I'm trying to say in my reviews and articles but also start characterizing the beer you drink to better determine your likes/dislikes.
The tagline to this blog is to savor the mix of barley, water, hops and yeast. These are the primary ingredients found in any beer and contribute to the color, aroma, mouthfeel, and taste. I'm going to attempt to break each of the ingredients down and how they contribute to the beer's flavor. Let's get on with it shall we?
