Who brought the St. Pauly Girl beer to the last GTG?


If a beer smells so bad that you can't be in the same room as the guy that is drinking it, then it should be thrown out.



Poor User....for a few minutes before it dawned on me what he was drinking, I was very concerned about the skunk breath.


:lmao :makeout

That will explain the sour lemon look on your face in some pictures...

The look on who's face? I had to drink it! And I was hoping to out the person that brought it.

Chemists Determine Cause of "Skunky" Beer

These days, beer is the beverage of choice at chemist Malcolm Forbes’s laboratory meetings at the University of North Carolina. That’s because their latest project aims to determine why beer exposed to light tastes bad. The results of their research, an explanation for this so-called light-struck flavor, will appear in the November 5th issue of Chemistry—A European Journal.

The phenomenon of beer turning skunky after exposure to light has been reported in the literature for more than 100 years, Forbes notes, but only now have scientists pinpointed the underlying mechanism. Using a type of spectroscopy that exploits electron spin, the researchers compiled a computer simulation of the reaction by which light-sensitive molecules in hops degrade into unpleasant-smelling products. The mechanism is intriguing, Forbes says, because one part of the molecule absorbs light energy that then migrates through the molecule and causes a free radical to form at a different location. "The final product of the reaction turns out to be what we call 'skunky thiol,' an analogue of a compound found in skunk glands that produces a very bad taste and smell," Forbes says. The flavor threshold of the thiol is so low, the authors write, that concentrations of a few parts-per-trillion can make beer unpalatable.

Breweries typically avoid the degradation of their product by packaging it in brown or green bottles to protect it from light. "Understanding mechanisms behind changes in beer tastes is important because the world beer industry is hoping to save money by storing, shipping and selling beer in less-expensive clear glass," Forbes explains. Currently beer manufacturers that package their product in clear bottles can use modified hops that produce different free radicals and result in less of the foul chemicals. But one company minimizes the impact of the skunky thiols through more ingenious means. "Corona is marketed extremely cleverly," Forbes says of that beer, which uses regular hops but has been sold in clear bottles all along. The company suggests that drinkers add a slice of lime to enhance the taste of the beer, not to mention its odor. --Sarah Graham

cool article

I know the answer to this question but I'll let that person admit it if they wish.

To me it tastes like polluted water.

[Kori Ellis]

I bought it. I like that beer, though the smell is nasty if you don't drink it with lemon.

[Useruser666]

UH OH!!! :lol @ LJ !!!

We have changed their names to protect the innocent.

That beer tasted very skunky to me. I don't drink a lot, but man! I tried to drown it out with like 2 Shmirnoffs a Miller Lite, a Shiner Bock, 2 20oz Cokes and a water, but the Cokes ended up justing bringing the taste and smell back! Ewwww! If I am ever forced to drink it again I will try and shove a whole lemon up each nostril.

:lol


A lot of residual skunk burps as well..... :nerd


I didn't taste it but man, I know the smell was pretty potent.... :wow :drunk :spin

[Shelly]

Shoulda stuck to the peach bellinis....

yuuuuuuumm

[SpursWoman]

OMG.....those were good! :wow :wow

[MannyIsGod]

Hell yeah those were.

[Kori Ellis]

Those Bellini's are great. I think the swirl of sangria is the key.

I am not fond of peaches expect for the actual fresh fruit, but dayum...

What I meant was that I don't like Peach Ice Cream or Peach Cobbler that much or any other peach flavored food item. I do, however, love peaches in their natural form. So...I was quite suprised that I loved the peach bellinis.

So go take that St. Paulie Girl beer and....drink it!

:flipoff







:lol :lol

[Bluto Blutarsky]

BEER! Did someone say BEER!
The next time you guys have one of these gtg thingy's I'll bring the whole fucking bar! :spin

[Jimcs50]

Beer and bad smell are synonymous.

[bigzak25]

the buds were damn good. never saw the bellinis or the st. girly skunk stuff....
