For years, an increasing number of scientists have warned about the side effects of climate change like rising oceans and unpredictable changes in weather patterns.
But this may be the most serious repercussion of climate change identified to date: Beer may taste different.
That's according to the research of Colleen Doherty, an associate professor of molecular and structural biochemistry at N.C. State University.
Doherty studies the connections between time and stress in plants, according to the university. In a recent post on the university's website, she explained how changing temperatures will affect hops and other beer ingredients.
Growers have cultivated different varieties of hops that produce different chemical compounds in order to provide distinctive flavors in beers.

Whilst so many have lost jobs due to the commie plandemic, it’s comforting to know that there are those beavering away and getting good money for it doing such important research like this /s

Yep get off your old sidewinder, down a cold beer or two and pee on a slug. This winter here in the Rockies Ill enjoy the globull warming while I pee ice on the ground and worry about my pet garden slug not getting his beer. Ima gonna miss summer.

And it very well could be that turd sammich you just ate that’s causing the beer to taste different.
Slug another one down.

I wasn’t around but from her pictures, baked in the clay, she wasn’t a bad looking young woman at all.

Hopefully itll improve that IPA shit.
Them’s fighting words, pal, I’m an IPA snob and proud of it!
Same here. If you’re ever around Galesburg Illinois get some Flatback from Iron Spike microbrewery. One of the best I’ve ever had.

Better hope it is a warming climate change.....If its a mini ice age no crops will be grown north of the Red River here in the USA......Ergo, no hops for the beer and mass starvation will enuse.........

Problem solved.

I live Yakima in E. Washington state, the fertile high desert here produces 70+% of the country's annual hop crop, and I can assure you there is very little temperature variation from one growing season to the next.
Just some 'scientist' spending grant $$$ and prefacing his report with 'could'.

Climate change has always happened naturally. Colleen is talking about another kind of climate change: the climate change in her head.

She may have been quite attractive in those days. It is hard to discern when viewing the mummified version...
