Tingly Lips?
Hi Guys,
Seriously not a joke post, I've just had a bottle of my Coopers Ginger beer. It's been in the bottle 2 weeks and even though it's meant to go another week according to the can I couldn't resists a test.
It smells amazing, tastes pretty good but half way down the glass it starts to tingle my lips? Is this normal? a result of drinking to early? I dont really mind myslef but anyone I serve a bottle to is going to be put off or think I've mucked up.
Cheers
In the Barrel - Golden Ale (woodfords)
In the Fermenter - Elderflower wine
Drinking - Nothing home made

Strange. Very strange indeed, I have no idea what it could be mate. Ive tried googleing it and it don't seem to be beer related so I'd say give it a week and see what happens, If not try it on another person and see if you get the same reaction.

Never experienced that either, so sorry. Its probably the ginger but I would imagine it will fade with time.

Not to worry, cheers for having a think any how. I'll leave it another week as advised on the can and re-check. Its odd because its practically perfect to drink. Its still quite cloudy though on closer inspection. Patatience is a virtue.

Yeah, patience, the one thing us brewers always lack when it comes to beer. I know I do!

Ginger does have a bit of a kick so it could just need to mellow a little.Rub some raw ginger on your lips and see if it has the same effect but don't post any pictures!

Hmmm .. I thought I'd stumbled into a porn forum by mistake, had to give a sneaky glance over my shoulder in case the missus was watching.
Tingly lips...? I'm sure I know her.... [shockicon]
