Can’t deny that lagers may be our legacy, 1830’s to present is still a small sliver of time but “craft” is less than a blink of an eye comparatively.
Besides I like lagers, I have three in the pipeline.
Intresting to read. But collect spit. Mmm. Dont know.
OH GROSS!! sit around chew on some grain and spit it out in a bucket… No flipping way… aint gonna happen… Shall we flavor this one with some snoose juice? I’m very content with what I brew in todays world… Sneezles61
Had an opportunity to drink chicha in Ecuador a few years ago. I’m gonna pass on that every time.

I guess it would work until you could afford a grain mill
No Way! Of course, my Mother chewed food and spit into my mouth when I was an infant… Thousands of centuries ago…Sneezles61
