We've all made them...Something that just sounds like it would be the PERFECT adjunct, style or process but the result on first tasting is a "spit it out immediately" moment that causes you to either question your brewing competency OR your sanity for EVER thinking doing THAT was a good idea!! So let's hear about them in all their glory!!
I brewed what I hoped was going to be a beef jerky infused IPA a couple of years back. That had to be the most putrid beer I've ever put into my mouth. Zippy head, smelled terrible and tasted even worse! I must have looked like one of those statues spitting a beer plume across the entire length of my kitchen when I tried to drink that ****!! That was an immediate dumper but it took me four washes of my carboy to get rid of the grease that had coated every nook and cranny! Needless to say, I no longer brew with meat products!!!
So let's hear about your personal epic FAILS!!!!
