Pockethops!

[Chops]

Anyone seen this in OZ?

What is POCKETHOPS? This patented combination of ULTRA CONCENTRATED hops extract and hops oil makes it possible for you to change ANY beer into a much "hoppier" version - each 30 mg (.0011 ounces) addition raises the IBUs (International Bitter Units) a full 10 units ! Want more bitterness? Add more POCKETHOPS ! It's totally up to you !

Why POCKETHOPS? So, generally you enjoy a craft or import beer which is well hopped. But the places that life takes you don't always cater to your needs. Maybe you will find yourself at a baseball game, party, tailgater, or in a bar or nightclub and they just don't serve a your favorite craft or import beer - or even a decently hopped beer. Or maybe you just couldn't resist the "Happy Hour" prices. This is the PERFECT solution for you! Simply add a dash (recommended 30 mg) of POCKETHOPS and *presto-change-o* you have a new and interesting beer, bursting with hoppy bitterness !

Hilarious! :lol:

That'll go down well in a club. Tipping a little vial of stuff into your drink.

yummo HOPPY whiskey.

:lol: funny stuff.

Presumably, not dissimilar to the liquid hops that Ross sells (but without the OTT yankee infomercial type write up )

You could even slip it into your coffee at work!

LMOA, I was thinking along the same lines a few weeks ago. Being one who dabbles occasionaly with the extractions of botanical material, I got to thinking about whether the hop holds it's flavour in it's trichomes, and how one would go about making a crude tincture to be used as a finishing additive. But then rationality and logic took over as it often tends to do, and I asked myself hy the hell would one bother, when one can just throw a 'teabag' into the mix with no hassle, no significant downtime etc.

Brain sometimes works too hard. Time for another beer :lol:

Know the feeling, man. Just ask Muckey....he still has bottles in the back of the fridge with home made crude tincture I did when first experimeting with hops.....it actually works quite well. I did it in 150ml batches (from memory) with enough hops so that 1mL=1 IBU (ish). 5mL (1 teaspoon) in a glass of fairly flavourless kit beer, it was a great way of seeing the different flavour that different varieties gives. Even made megaswill taste reasonable. :lol:

$25 for 3g!!



Would it be cheaper to buy the other 'mind bending' vials to add to my drinks at the baseball or a nightclub? :icon_vomit:

I lol'd. It's a fairly creative concept, even if it is a bit silly.
