I suppose most of us are used to cloudy beer, and we're not put off by it, but it can be a bit of a shock to folks who are not familiar with homebrewed beers, so it's nice to clarify the beer if you share it with others.Erichttp://winesnob.info/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684895611791698771.post-75468420020147854552011-09-25T16:50:17.288-06:002011-09-25T16:50:17.288-06:00I love making my own beer and trying other people&...I love making my own beer and trying other people's brews.

Plus, I look at it like this: if the polyphenols and plant lipids are stuck together, there's an inconsistency in the batch. Each taste will be different, kind of like what I thought of Cheerios as a kid. So, breaking that apart helps bring the batch to a greater consistency.
