Does all hop bitterness taste the same? To find out, we brew two Blonde Ales, each estimated at 40 IBU, where one uses a bunch of low alpha acid hops and the other relies on a smaller amount of high alpha acid hops. The finished beers are then served to blind participants to see if they can tell them apart, and we also have the beers analyzed by White Labs to verify their actual IBUs.
