It's also an off flavor that tasters train for in beer, from water inclusion. It's not good for beer but I don't mind the smell at all
Very beet-flavored to me
Funny you should call it beet-flavor. Geosmin is literally the reason why beets have that flavor :)
Yup! I know, I was an expert taster at a large brewery :)
It was fun! And a little bit ruined some beer for me.
I'm an enthusiastic amateur taster with a terrible palette and I bet it would ruin it for me, too.
Fitting username
At 45 i consider myself to have reached Pro-am status.
"Earthy" if you will.
Wayoooo
You train to taste beer?
Absolutely, if you're serious about sensory science!
At the large craft brewery I worked in we trained on like.... ~40 attributes? Weekly usually, with taste panel and impromptu trainings most every day.
You can study to become a beer judge, even just for fun: https://dev.bjcp.org/education-training/exam-preparation/beer-judge-training-study-program/
One of the parts of that is to get a kit that helps you recognize "off" flavors: https://www.bjcp.org/education-training/education-resources/sensory-kits/
