Felsmaker i Öl – This Shit is a Science

“Tomas Danko, vän och gästskribent, öldrickare av rang, tillika vice huvuddomare på Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival tillika Belgisk admin på Ratebeer, reder ut en del trendiga begrepp som vi nog alla kan ha nytta av att lära oss. Han kan sin sak, det lovar vi. Korka upp en öl, mys ner dig i soffan och förkovra dig. Det är en rejäl bit text att bita tag i!” – M2 @ Manker Beer

I’ve written an article, or is it a rant, on current buzz words regarding off-flavors and bi-products in beer and how some beer journalists, bloggers and forum warriors tend to have an opinion on those with no fundamental knowledge to base it upon. To remedy this I explain what some of these words mean in terms of flavor, smell and what causes them. Read up on diacetyl, oxidation, DMS, 2,4,6-Trichloroanisole and more. The article has been published on one of the biggest beer blogs in Sweden, and caused quite a stir.
