    I have a beer review blog with my friend and we usually get beers that name some funny stuff in the ingredient list, and we make fun of it in the web cast.

    For example: Contains: Water, Barley malt, hops, yeast, love and dedication.

    So at our reviewing sessions we joke about not detecting the love notes or not knowing what dedication tastes like. Some of the "odd" ingredients we´ve found are:

    1.- Love (lot´s of beer include love in the recipe)
    2.- Dedication
    3.- Friendship
    4.- Fun
    5.- Sex appeal
    6.- Intelligence
    7.- Care
    8.- Science
    9.- Warm country sun

    What´s with that?

    Your palate will eventually evolve to detect love. Just keep trying.

    You don't taste the love in BCBS!?! Hint: it tastes similar to Bourbon.

    Cheers!

    I´ll stay with that definition, because someone told me in the blog that love smells like fish :grimacing: haha. :grinning:

    It's called a sense of humor.

    I'd be scared of a literal interpretation of love though.....pretty damn scared in fact.

    I know I've definitely had some beers that must have been brewed with anger, because they tasted like they were mad at me.
