Chrysanthemum Pilsner v1.0 – review

By arzhou | September 3, 2010

Appearance: Amber, slightly cloudy (homebrews are usually unfiltered), Rather poor head retention.

Aroma: The is the presence of Saaz hops, in this version it is somewhat mild and earthly, can smell the grassy hops, but its not very distinct. The mini keg that I did dry hopping with was somewhat more distinct.  There appears to be a hint of fruity smell as well, not sure if that is due to the presence of the Chrysanthemum or the fact that the base liquid was a tea affected the overall chemistry.

Flavour: There is a somewhat more prevalent citrus/fruity flavour (most likely esters), I think the malt gives a more bready feel, but overall the citrus taste and the tannic of the tea is more obvious than the malt.

Mouthfeel: Not very good carbonation, but that is fine since it will improve once i pump more CO2 in. Medium body, so its something you can drink on its own. High astringency but that is due to the fact that the base liquid was a tea. The finish is sweet and there is a somewhat slick after taste. (like buttery slick)

Overall: Decent experiment, but this has convinced me i need to work on more basic stuff to really understand brewing science more before i try crazier stuff.
