Drinking a C61 right now. It’s amazing how the aroma is pretty much all yeast esters but the flavor is all hops. I got some C61 as it uses mostly 06297 which is now called Lotus. I’ve got a bunch of it and was hoping this beer would help tell me a little about what the hop is like... nope. Maybe on flavor but that’s it.
The mouthfeel still amazes me. It’s so intense at the front of the pallet then completely falls away and leaves you with just mouth coating hop oils. Zero lingering bitterness. Their beers are definitely on the higher end of carbonation as well.
In regards to the elevated potassium levels.... I’m not 100% sure that’s from KCL. A lot of the downstream hop products like tetra and hexahop are made using potassium so that could potentially come into play when evaluating finished beer potassium content. Again I’m not sure but taking into account the almost comical head their beers have it wouldn’t surprise me.
