    It’s also an off flavor that tasters train for in beer, from water inclusion. It’s not good for beer but I don’t mind the smell at all

    Very beet-flavored to me

      Funny you should call it beet-flavor. Geosmin is literally the reason why beets have that flavor :)

        Yup! I know, I was an expert taster at a large brewery :)

        It was fun! And a little bit ruined some beer for me.
