Marijuana Beer

Interesting concept. I don't use the stuff either.

Aren't' hops in the same family?

 

Its illegal

 

Drugs are bad, mmmkay?

I've also heard my buddies talking about trying this by replacing hops with weed, but I'm not sure it would come out that great. First, I don't know what the alpha acid levels are in refer. Second, not so sure if any THC would make it through the boil. If I saw weed beer sold commercially in Colorado or Washington, I would pass on it.

 

Save your weed adding it to beer is not going to give you any THC.

 

It will, if done right and it'll knock you on your can.
Add tincture on flame out, or in the secondary. The good stuff and the results are not very water soluble and won't handle being boiled.
There's a honey tincture recipe that pairs with a chai recipe around the webs that look like it would work very nicely in a stout / winter warmer or perhaps a Belgian?

 

Well I never tried it. WE had the argument a few times, long ago its usually gets deleted asap. I been to Amsterdam many many times, and I am not scared to say I smoke the hell out of the stuff over there. I even been to places that used to let you drink and smoke. But I asked many over there where is the pot beer, I not seen it, not yet anyway.

I just do not think the THC would survive the process, but hey I bet I am wrong, its not the first time, nor will it be the last. Live and learn.

 

How about Alice B Toklas Brownie Ale?

 

I'm sure THC oils can dissolve in the beer causing both Types of highs. But You would need a lot of Cannabis to achieve a desired result. Here is a sample of a home brew recipe that looks interesting. Credits goto MotaLeon22.

Thanks for posting! It looks like an expensive recipe though.

 

That's why I never attempted.

 

Marijuana aromas usually only end up in my beer when it is skunked.

 

I've heard that confirmed, hops and cannabis same family.

As a non MJ user, I absolutely love the smell and taste, just don't like the effects of it anymore. I'd love an infused IPA with the MJ to try, but only if it were THC free. I think it would taste lovely!

 

The only reason to put weed in beer is for people with emphysema who can't smoke it. For everyone else, light up before and while you drink. You'll get the same high.

 

There are plenty of reasons for not igniting said plant, and ingesting is a very different experience than inhaling it. Physical activities; like swimming are not recommended for two hours after meals.
I can only imagine there are already some serious and long developed inroads between the Colorado dispensaries and some of its breweries, and their staff that are hard at work figuring this out as we speak.

 

they are from the same family, and a MJ IPA would most likely taste amazing!

 

there's a big difference between smoking and ingesting.

 

I seen lots of recipe but is there any science to show the beer produced actually has any THC? I mean the mind is a crazy thing, I seen kids smoke Oregano and think they are high. of course the THC in pot is way higher than the 60's and 70's. I used to think 5 grams was nothing but 5 grams goes a long way, via smoking.

LOL.
