    One fatal flaw in this video: they added more hops because the flavor of hops diminished very rapidly, not to preserve the beer. More sugar was added the achieve a higher alcohol content to avoid spoilage. A common misconception about IPAs. More hops ≠ higher alcohol. Higher Sugar = higher alcohol.

      I would like to rebuttal with one nuance, since your doing research, that is, that hops indeed do preserve the beer to a certain extent as they were very prone to bacterial infections on ship, but I wanted to point out that the video didn’t mention the equally important reason for adding the extra hops, so it still retained some of the hoppy flavor by the time it arrived

    • @AsserKortteenniemi
      @AsserKortteenniemi 2 роки тому +1

      Not sure if they would add sugar as it is, I personally would just use more malts for the same volume of beer to gain the higher alcohol content. But then, it could be that you just oversimplified your statement and meant just what I said.

    It's worth noting that IPA was made stronger but when it arrived in India was meant to be watered down but the message did not get through and so people drank it neat. It was made Pale as to suit the climate. India Pale Ale became popular again after the US market made it popular again and was copied by the UK Brewers.
