  • PBR is carbonated. But what was served using nitro gas instead? These are the tough questions we're asking (and answering) here at Clawhammer.

    Guinness made a Nitro IPA that I actually really enjoyed. I haven't seen it since so I'm guessing others didn't share my sentiment haha.

      I loved that IPA. I had cask IPA once in England after returning home from 10 years of living and brewing in the US - cold rainy December day, I walked past the rough pub I always walked past as a lad, but needed a pee so stopped in for a piss-chase pint. Pub was empty but they had this cask IPA and I drunk it by the log fire and melted. I had three I think. That seat and that smooth hoppy beer will forever be my happy place. Not nitro but it taught me that IPAs can be smooth as with nitro or cask, and I’ll forever think of it as a cold weather beer.

    Pour carefully into a purged keg, then degas over a couple days, then put on nitro

    You can just bang like 30psi or maybe more on the keg and give it a shake. No need for air stones. Just takes either patience or elbow grease.

    It might as well have been water to me, but I can't take it now. It tastes like an ashtray.

  • @liamo8932
    @liamo8932 7 місяців тому +1

    Nitro enhances the malt and knocks down the hops in terms of flavour. That's why it doesn't typically work that well with IPAs etc. Trying it out with something that has complex malts is likely to work better. I'm sure there will be types of light beers out there that are worth experimenting with though.

    • @andrewbourke288
      @andrewbourke288 7 місяців тому

      I had a red ale on nitro once that had so little flavour I would've been concerned if I didn't have another beer beside it. It was part of a tasting set from a branch of a major global brewery and it was less flavourful than water

    • @liamo8932

    Just do what I do, Mix one PBR or Hamm's with one 1554. Instead of have one great beer and one less than great beer, you end up with two great dark lagers.

    • @chevysaregr8
      @chevysaregr8 7 місяців тому +1

      Hamms is a very neutral beer, it mixes well with everything. I mix it with strong ipa beers all the time. I don't care for crazy hopped beers so mixing them cuts it down

  • @russellzauner
    @russellzauner 7 місяців тому +1

    CO2 tastes metallic to me. I think that part of the myth of "metallic taste from canned beer" was generated by artificial carbonation - many beers simply don't have that taste in a can and oddly enough some beers taste metallic to me regardless of packaging (unless they're using a nitro torpedo like Guinness).

    I've long been wanting to try to do some home nitro beers.
    BUT, I don't have a kegerator...just an old fridge I keep kegs in with a "party tap" hooked on. Is there any way to do Nitro on a party type style serving system?

    • @ScullyBrewing

      You can get mini nitro cartridges with an accompanying nitro mini regulator. It wouldnt be cost efficient compared to a whole tank but its doable

    • @chilecayenne
      @chilecayenne 7 місяців тому

      @@ScullyBrewing I'm good for getting a whole tank and I understand you need a different regulator....but it's the TAP end of the thing that I dunno how to do outside a kegerator...they all use this fancy tap that swings forwards and backwards and I just have a hose with a party tap that goes on my kegs...nowhere to mount anything.

  • @shaunstaples3d44
    @shaunstaples3d44 7 місяців тому +2

    Have you ever had decarboated fizzy water? It tastes bitter and acidic even after making it flat. I suspect the PBR still held onto the acid and bitterness that your homebrew cream ale didn’t have when you put that on nitro, and that could be some of the reason why you liked one and not the other.

    I actually don't care...but the OATMEAL STOUT on nitrogen had a total advantage over PBR which was on CO2 and then transmuted to Nitrogen. Also, PBR is awful...even for those of us who damn love Oatmeal Stout (or any other dang Stout) my apologies to those souls who love PBR and do not homebrew. Luv U Guys and MERRY CHRISTMAS!
