Rosemary

Rosemary, a popular herb in the culinary world, has also found its way into beer brewing. With its distinct pine-like aroma and earthy flavor profile, Rosemary adds a refreshing twist to traditional brews. When used in small amounts, it can enhance the overall taste of beer by introducing subtle herbal notes and imparting a slightly savory character.

Apart from being an interesting flavor addition, Rosemary is also known for its antibacterial properties which can aid in preserving the quality of the beer. Additionally, this versatile herb acts as a natural antioxidant that helps prolong shelf life. Rosemary is typically infused during different stages of brewing including mashing or boiling to extract maximum flavors and aromas. It is commonly used in various beer styles such as Belgian Witbiers or farmhouse ales where it complements well with citrusy or fruity characteristics while providing depth and complexity to the final product.
