Runs With Beer

Have you been plagued by uninformed friends and family members who swear that they know beer better than you?

Well, it’s time to tackle the top beer myths and demolish them once and for all. Myth number one: Only men homebrew – women don’t drink or make beer. Not true! Although there are a huge number of male homebrewers and beer drinkers, there’s also a large number of women who do the same – and this number grows every year. Myth number two: For best results, you must bottle your homebrew inside of green bottles only. Nope! Brown bottles are best – they keep out the most light. Exposure to light is a sure-fire way to ruin a good batch of beer. Myth number three: Bitter beer is bad beer. Okay, let’s get this straight: Whether a little bitter or a lot, all beers have a bitter flavor. The reason for this is the use of hops, which is required for the authentic beer taste. So if your beer is bitter – it’s just fine as it is. Myth number four: The only reason to homebrew is because the alcohol content is higher than beers you can buy at the store. This is simply false. The reason this myth exists is because of bad information: Many beers you buy show the alcohol content by weight, while alcohol content is measured by volume when homebrewing. Quite often the homebrew beer matches the similar alcohol content of the store-bought brands, if not being just a little more or less. The reason to homebrew is the fun and the delicious result. Myth number five: Homebrewed beer is ruined if the bottles are not kept refrigerated. Truth is if the bottle has not been opened, just return the warm beer to the fridge. Once cold, it will taste just as great as before. The only ways to destroy a good homebrew is to let it sit out open to the air, or set a clear bottle of brew in the sun for a long time.  Now you know the truth – these beer myths have been completely busted. However, there is one more that is the number one complaint: Homebrewing is hard work. Nowadays, with prepared malt extracts and six-gallon fermenters, it’s no more difficult than making bread in a bread machine. Just mix the ingredients, cap the fermenter, and let the yeast go to work making you beer.
