Let's talk about "health-conscious" beer

I hear ya, I like different stuff in my beer too but more bitter than sweet. The wild rose raspberry ale is good if you haven't tried it and big rock also has a juniper berry which is also pretty good.

Mike what kind of beer do you brew? I'm venturing this way as well shortly, actually ordered a BREWHA BIAC a while back which is suppose to ship out next week

May I ask where you order the BREWHA BIAC? Thanks!

EDIT: never mind, I googled & found it. Thought it was ingredients, not hardware. Costly little piece of gear!

Happened to tune in to the news on TV this am & there was a quick blurb from a doctor regarding the health benefits of beer. As with most things, moderation is the key. So go forth & find a brew that appeals to your taste buds, organic or not, there are studies showing possible health benefits. Hops feature prominently.

A quick search yielded the following links:

I was looking at there webpage no purple gas, so maybe it was one of there one off seasonal micro brews. Juniper berry hmm wonder if it has a gin after taste

I just put down a new batch of wine and a batch of mead so i'll have to look at those now that I am waiting
