if you poured beer through a brita water filter, what would you get?

[rocadelpunk]

The assumption being you have the basic dna of beer: water, yeast, malt and hops.

Bud Light?

 

[SP33Demon]

Bud Light?

Don't you mean piss?

 

[techs]

Wow. That's a great experiment. Has anyone tried it?

 

[bignateyk]

It's just a carbon filter. You would still get beer. It's not like it would convert it to water.

 

[Red Irish]

Filtered beer?

 

[KMFJD]

flat beer

[SunSamurai]

[Mucho]

Bud Light?

 

[Juddog]

Some people actually do that with Vodka.

 

[Modular]

I was gonna say Miller Lite.

 

[JDub02]

dissolved particles will remain in the beer. anything in suspension would probably filter out. my guess is that there's little to nothing in suspension, so you'd still have beer.

 

[JulesMaximus]

flat beer

Probably this.

 

[chitwood]

I wanna go someplace where the beer flows like wine

So...they ended up with flat Coors Light, which is different than water how?

 

[FelixDeCat]

Its carbon filtered for your drinking pleasure!

 

[Kelemvor]

Mythbusters did the Vodka thing and brought in a Vodka expert. He tasted the samples and pegged them in exactly the right order on how many times they had been filtered.

The cheap stuff filtered like 8 times was way better than not filtered at all but still not as good as the really expensive vodka.

 

[eits]

well, since brita sucks donkey dick, it probably tastes the exact same, just flat.

 

[FoBoT]

Filtered beer?

 

[Ausm]

Some people actually do that with Vodka.

Especially with the cheap shit.

You would get less alcohol, I would think. Doesn't charcoal filters bind up alcohol?

I remember hearing that is why you can run shitty vodka like Valdy through to filter out the nasty, but you can do it with certain other water filters that don't use charcoal.
