Homo Beerectus: Peculiar Pupil | D'Oude Maalderij
ABV: 6.0%
IBU: 27
Style: Spiced / Herbed Beer
Actively Produced
Description: Yet again, I found myself in a troubled state of mind when I was developing this Peculiar Pupil. The general idea was to make a beer, quiet light in alcoholcontent, which would be good for drinking on a nice sunny terrace as it was going to be launched in the week spring kicks in. But there are already plenty of these beers, so what to do to honour our Homo Beerectus genes? What to change? To change you first need to state the simularities. One of them was that most of these beers are yellow, blond in color. That's why I came up with the idea of adapting the color. I started looking for ways to change color in beer and food which were organic and natural. As I didn't want to make it green, blue or purple and was not going to add any real fruits, my search lasted quite long. Time was ticking as the beer was already in the fermenter. At a certain night, I saw the light... Wandered of in a reverie I saw Mario becoming super by eating a flower. As I dug in the knowledge of plants and flowers, I discovered many possibilities. None of them innovative offcourse, but some of them I remembered for later use. On this beer I chose not to go too experimental as the first beers of this project need to be special but also easy drinkable. I opted for the use of Hibiscus. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hibiscus
