Yeasty beasties. My bad, why does moderate temperature beligan (and NOT NB) or N. Cal beer taste so fantatstic despite its low residual sugar, is it the hop madness, or the champaign like effervesance (yes typing too fast) or something else?
and asked two.1. Belgian beer: Most Belgian beers are top fermented and use wild yeast strains. This gives them their incredibly fruity and floral taste and nose.
2. California beer: The fruitiness in California beers is usually due to a profound love of hops. By using very rich Cascade and Hallertauer hops and dry-hopping in a lot of circumstances, you get a very floral and frgrant beer. My personal favorite of the hop bombs is the Racer 5 IPA from Bear Republic.
In the case of a more pedestrian beer (Sierra Nevada Pale Ale comes to mind), the balanced use of Cascade to start, and judicious use of finishing hops (I'd swear Hallertauer, but could be wrong) gives it that very crisp clean finish.

Unkie trunkie, why would someone say 操你?
I'm not readily familiar with any dialects of Chinese.
