frozen beer - Malt gradient!

Post by Gurgeh » Sun May 04, 2008 7:51 pm

I accidentally left the keg-fridge door open and instead of maintaining 13C, my cornie froze solid.

upon restoration to 13C, the first few pints were seriously rich and full bodied - amazing!

I have just poured away the last gallon however as it was 'Canoe Sex'

so whilst I'm a little miffed at the waste, I'm happy that I've already drunk the goodness from it and I'm delighted to be able to use the above description, which has had me smiling since I read it yesterday :lol:

It interests me that the beer didn't 'mix' again upon defrosting. I must also say that the whole keg was diamond clear after the temp was restored.

I dare say that I may do this intentionally under certain circumstances...
