Fine tasting beer is diminishing in quality as we speak. Soon all beer will taste like the pitiful remains of a warm keg doused with lost dreams and shameful regrets. Or at least be really watery.
Czech climatologist Martin Mozny claims that a rise in air temperature has diminished the flavor-giving acidity of Saaz hops, a key, sanity-giving ingredient in pilsner lager.
"It's not just Czech hops that are at stake here, says Francesco Tubiello, a crop specialist at the European Commission and a lead author of the agriculture chapter of the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report. "The famous hop-growing regions of eastern Germany and central Slovakia are facing the same situation," he says.
Et tu Beer!! The word is indeed a cold and cruel place without your sweet taste.
