It's probably worth noting that most "pot terpenes" commonly occur elsewhere in nature. Limonene for example can be distilled from citrus peels and makes a fine solvent and cleaner; alpha and beta pinenes are what's in turpentine. Caryophyllene, abudant in both hops and pot, can also be extracted from caraway seeds and other herbs.

I'm kind of glad to read that Seattle brewers aren't seasoning their beer with extracted terpenes, but in general spiced beer isn't for me anyway. There's plenty of variety in hops.

Anything but another damn overrated IPA.

@1 of course, most hops terpenes occur elsewhere in nature too. It's all just what profile you care to source from where.

Looks like you missed all three of us together (in public) recently, Lester Black.

Brewing Summit 2018, San Diego, August 12th-14th.
Joint Workshop - A Plant, a Process, Safe Access, and Flavor

Cannabis and beer are beginning to share space on the shelf and in the consumers' sight lines. Understanding the use of cannabis, how it is bred for brewing processes and used at a brewery, and how it can be safely accessed are among this workshop's highlights. Assembled are the folks "doing the work." Gain perspective for how this plant may be the next "hop" addition, not only for flavor but also for other active ingredients of value to the brewer.
