It was A two batch day for me. The first was, of course, an IPA with some new hops and the second was an ESB. I used some hop extract for the first time on the IPA. This stuff came in tiny little 5 ml syringes. Claire and I both learned the valuable lesson of not tasting this stuff directly. We both put the tiniest of drops on our tongues and we were “rewarded” with intense hop flavor that stuck to your teeth and wouldn’t go away. Not a pleasant experience.
