The aroma, the initial taste and mouthfeel and the lingering traces of malt and hops.<br />I wouldn't do that with a 'mainstreem beer.' Basically because there is not that much to appreciate and that is why they are session beers.<br />Don't get me wrong I still enjoy a lot of those session beers, they are just not as complex and don't warrant as much attention. <br />To me that is the difference between a 'sell it to the masses' mainstreem beer and a 'really good' hand crafted beer.<br />Let's hope that if they change the terminology they do it for the right reasons and don't confuse those that are just starting to get an appreciation for a craft brewed beer as to what exactly a craft brewed beer is!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09185245008513097633noreply@blogger.com
