I normally don’t drink beer or ale because I find it too bitter. I have no problems with malt though (I actually think it’s pretty interesting). Would I be correct in thinking that unhopped beer is less bitter?
Also does anyone have any advice for brewing my first ale? I have made fruit wine, mead, and cider before but never beer. I have some kveik yeast and spray malt from other brews that I can use so I am thinking of using that. The closest I have gotten to brewing ale or beer is making bochet braggot so any help is appreciated.
I hate to tell you this but unhopped beers are older than hopped ones. It’s called gruit beer. I might aim for something like that.
Yes. And I’d wager a gruit recipe is not just going to be malt and yeast.
