We tried the SAME BEER on Nitro and CO2 - What's the Difference?

- Nitrogenated beer (or nitro beer) Vs Carbonated beer (or CO2 beer): Is nitro beer better than carbonated beer? Or does the carbonation mouthfeel and bite beat the smooth nitro cascade? In order to find out, we home brew a split batch of the same black lager beer and taste them side by side. Also in this video is the history of nitro beer. Spoilder: Guinness played a big role in making nitro beer available to everyone.

Just got the same shirt delivered just yesterday! Gotta support!
That 3:16 mark was my EXACT same reaction when I tried my first nitro. You never go back! 🤣
Interesting video, I’m a huge fan of Nitro and I’ll have to try this myself the results were surprising.
Nice to see some Homebrew 4 Life swag! Cheers!
Maybe the flavor difference is that C02 creates acid and N doesn't. Acid enhances flavor or at least, changes it.
Awesome video! Really digging your shirt too.

Thanks for the love clawhammer!

@@ClawhammerSupply Michael Edward ash lived till 2016 and was honoured by the company a month before his death. Not all Guinness is nitro. Co2 Guinness is still available even in imperial pint bottles. Until the late 1980’s it was the only way to have Guinness at home. Even then many drinkers didn’t like the nitro Guinness my great grandfather included and so co2 bottles half and full pint were sold in a lot of pubs until the 1990’s/2000’s usually off the shelf until when the older men who drank co2 Guinness were dying off.
I love Ross' Sleep's Holy Mountain shirt!
The Sleep shirt got you the thumbs up. Matt Pike would be proud.
Hi from France 👋 so do you carbonat with nitrogen or just push the lines with n ? Love you guys
do yall use pure nitrogen or beer bas (70:30 N2/CO2)?
Very good to know thanks for the info
Well done! I'm not a nitro fan, but honestly, a very dark and very heavy (usually very high abv) seems to benefit from Nitro, making them easier on the palate, while low abv and almost all lighter beers, in my opinion, taste really weird to me with nitro. Sam Adams, a few years ago, was throwing all kinds of light beers on Nitro commercially, and I thought they all tasted weird (light, low in flavor, and frothy).
So just carb as normal with the nitro?
That's a dope shirt he's wearing!
Very interesting.
God that looks so delicious!!!!
What happened to nitro beers? Never see them on tap anymore. Hardly ever even see Guinness on tap anymore.
Kyle is now a scientist
Wow, those day-drinking beer analysts must have pushed your production budget. 🤣
It's so true what you say about Nitro only suiting certain styles, I guess more malt-driven ones would do best.
I only use Nitro for Irish-style stouts and reds so don't really know.
Nice video that popped up in my recommended list. 👍
Those two styles are my favourite
Great video. Got a link for that sweet stellar tshirt?

What about nitro vs beer machine?
I’ve had beer gas for about 6 months. Barely put it to use 2 days ago. Made a raspberry cream ale with some vanilla beans added. Was going for a raspberry creamsicle vibe. Bringing back childhood memories but raspberry instead of orange.
It'd be cool to see a comparison of nitro vs co2 vs co2 through a nitro tap.
I don't have a nitro setup but I have a stout spout that I've been trying out and the perforated plate in the spout seems to cause smaller CO2 bubbles to form giving the beer a bit of a cascading effect as well as a creamier feel. It's not a full on nitro feel but it's somewhere between nitro and co2 so I think it might be worth checking out. (also, it's a cheap solution to get close to nitro for those that can't really justify getting a nitro setup).
Since you already have the faucet just get a bottle of beer gas and you're all set.
Getting a bottle of beer gas is very expensive here and is very hard to get your hands on and as such is not a viable option for me.
When is the craft beer channel/clawhammer supply colab video coming?
It might just be happening in JULY OF THIS YEAR, but i'll never tell!!!
@@ClawhammerSupply That would be awesome!
Sounds like all of the differences mentioned are direct effects of carbonic acid - crisp & bitter because the beer is more acidic. More aromatic might be because of the larger bubbles and more gas that was actually absorbed into the beer being released. I don't think the nitro actually gets absorbed.
I take handfuls of leaves and grass and toss that in my fermenters... some of the nitrogen in the plant is in the form of n02... ie laughing gas... and it feels like every beer is a few whippits worth of nitrous. Makes you super super tingly and buzzy all over and also makes everything hilarious...
Are you sure those are hops you're throwing into your wort? 🤣
Firstly NO2 is nitrogen dioxide, N2O is what's known as laughing gas or nitrous oxide or Fast and Furious go juice (NOS)
Still, loved the comment...
Are you going to try throwing some pale beers on nitro? I'd like to see that experiment!
A local brewery in Aus does many of their hazies on Nitro, I've tried a couple times. Underwhelming. I don't know why they keep doing it
I had a black IPA once on nitro, I enjoyed it but it needed the crisp bitterness of co2...wish I had it on that and not nitro
It’s better on darker beers. If you ever get the chance to try an authentic English style ale on cask it’s worth it.
I'm a booze hound! Booze it up, i like booze! Booze Town! YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
Nice shirt braj.
This guy gets it
actually nitro beer is beer made with niter, which was used in Egyptian mummification
You ever made a braggot?
So in simplistic terms a flatter beer is more palatable at this logic?? When i crack a beer when 1/3 to 1/4 of the beer is left. It is not very carbonated id sooner drink my own piss then finish it. That is not a exaggeration either.
If it ain't bottle conditioned or casked, I don't want it.
Cask made sense when a lot of people had a beer for lunch and after work most or every day of the week
Not a fan of Nitro at all.
Nitro Pepsi tastes like Shit.
