First of all, I'm a total noob when it comes to brewing, but consider myself rather an experienced taster
Well in the research I've been doing on home brewing I see lot's of additives and techniques to make a beer crystal clear and to avoid cloudy beers. Now maybe it is personal choice, but I've always found that my favourite beers are cloudy beers.
In fact I remember saying to a friend of mine, that if I can see through my beer I'm probably not going to love it.
There are some exceptions of course but generally I love a good cloudy beer.
So what am I missing? These cloudy beers were from craft breweries so maybe they avoid over cloudy beer (is that a thing??). Note that I'm not a big fan of larger or pislner, don't get me wrong, it is beer so it is wonderful but low on my list of favourite beer styles.
So is it just me? am I crazy or are others as confused as I about why people put extra effort into making there beers clear?
