Hazy IPAs (India Pale Ales) are a popular trend these days among those that desire a hop-forward beer, and often, these are immensely turbid beers. However, this contradicts general wisdom that most beers save a few, such as wheat beers like hefeweissen, should be brilliantly "bright" and remain that way throughout their shelf life.
Join Dr. Charlie Bamforth, the Anheuser-Busch Endowed Professor of Malting & Brewing Sciences at the UC Davis, as he discusses the science involved in all this, both sensory and chemical, as well as how the brewer can ensure that the customer gets what they want from their beer.
