        @Giles:

        Beer has to be fined.  It is what makes the Yeast coagulate and fall to the bottom of the cask or bottle.  Without fining a beer, you will not get a clear beer.

        That would mean then that no German brewery is allowed to produce a clear beer then since an "additive" is required?

        What are the advantages of clear beer - a clear head perhaps? Inspiration for new IH creations? Or just pure satisfaction of thirst-

          I am no expert on German brewing laws, but I suspect that as finings do not actually stay in the beer (that is the whole point, they cause the yeast to coagulate around them, so that the yeast sinks to the bottom), they are allowed.  Isinglass is prpbably the oldest and most traditional finings used in Central Europe.

            Proper traditional beer is brewed with a top fermenting yeast, as the yeast cells die (alcohol poisoning) they drop to the bottom but also lie in suspension hence the need for finings.  Larger is brewed with a bottom fermenting yeast which leaves a naturally clear beer. Larger is also normally pasteurised which kills off any remaining yeast, where as real ale is still alive in the barrel.

                              Yup…
                              Definitely a serious work trip.
                              Last year I tattooed till midnight a couple nights, and even tattooed some wealthy dude in his hotel after that till 4 in the morning...

                              Hoping I can squeeze in a little fun this time.

                                            And yes Splattered, this shirt is seeing all kinds of action…thanks again!

                                            Thanks Rocket.

                                            And Mr. Clintor...how long you in town?

                                            P.S.  Tonight I was walking down the street and this guy was like, "hey man, nice shirt (IHSH-09)".
                                            I thanked him and he introduced himself as Andrew, from SENY.  I then looked up and realized I was standing directly across the street from the store.  I was on the way to a last minute dinner and couldn't stop in right then, but I am going to do my damnest to visit tomorrow...
