When we were tasting, it was sometimes hard to make distinctions between strains on the spot-individual strains start to meld together. Your write-up makes clear some of the specifics that get lost in the moment. Props to you for putting it all together. It was super fun and really informative.Daniel Schroederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01991757197619757755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276581264737472765.post-31663678955919403502014-03-03T15:19:20.916-08:002014-03-03T15:19:20.916-08:00Good thoughts on taking bias out of the testing.

Our tasters didn't know the strain until after tasting, but I also don't think that would influence anyone too much.<br /><br />Have you posted your results?

I still need to upload my results to the google doc. It was taking too long to go page by page, but I found out I can copy and paste into the spreadsheet.<br /><br />I should get the 2nd phase of testing (bottle conditioning) completed soon and then let them sit for a while. I'm thinking 6 months.Jeffrey Cranehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01520169652639837640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276581264737472765.post-8905660969725929932014-03-03T12:15:39.405-08:002014-03-03T12:15:39.405-08:00Well, let me know if you want some others.

Some of your tasting notes sound awesome, very cool idea to try them with a group.Ed Coffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04672738361854758709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276581264737472765.post-14568314387776637372014-03-01T20:26:57.762-08:002014-03-01T20:26:57.762-08:00I followed the same format for the tasting as you,...I followed the same format for the tasting as you, and with only 10 to try, palates were still fatiguing. I also worry about the tasting order bias. I will randomize the order next time, and depending on how many people I have tasting, have 2 groups tasting in a different order. I made sure that nobody knew which strain they were tasting as well.

I am quite surprised that the different Cantillon strains perform differently. Who would have thought. <br /><br />Judging from the results I have so far: different people judge strains differently. Some like EBY008, others don't. <br /><br />Lets hope more people log their results in the google doc. I only have 32 entries so far...eurekabrewinghttp://www.eurekabrewing.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276581264737472765.post-34206492804243182172014-02-28T16:13:33.975-08:002014-02-28T16:13:33.975-08:00It was a good night.

I might try to figure out something else for the 6 month tasting. <br /><br />That won't be the last time you try a beer with EBY 008 in it.Jeffrey Cranehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01520169652639837640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276581264737472765.post-53899759237467791722014-02-28T15:50:53.590-08:002014-02-28T15:50:53.590-08:00Jeff,

I agree with you also #8 was a solid winner. Keep the information rolling in....Lewyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04706904636362867519noreply@blogger.com
