Bloom tastes like ghost did back in the gap. I hope it sticks around.



Allegedly the variation in this batch of Ghost is attributable to the house yeast having essentially evolved. As a result, Andrew thinks it's floccing harder, which is making it different. That would make sense, but others I've talked to (that know more than I do) speculate that it's a water issue as well.

Allegedly Bloom uses the same strain as "old" Ghost, which would explain the similarities there. I realize this probably begs more questions than I have answers for, but that's what I've been told.

Now I'm gonna go back to my Devil's Harvest and let you baws keep trolling.

Is it a house strain they harvest from each batch or how does that work?

NBD is a Live Oak Hefe. These have grown on me:

i'm with Unc on this one, this batch of Ghost is fricking awful, all booze no nose i just dont understand why they have to mess with the once great beer. Every batch since July has been arse
probably coincidence but ghost hasn't been the same since they started brewing opus vert. My very first though after my first sip of bloom was "this reminds me of how ghost used to taste". RIP ol' juice bomb, you had a good run.
