The Maillard reaction is one of the reasons food turns brown when cooked. Maillard first described this reaction between an amino acid and a sugar under heat, producing hundreds of different flavour compounds. In brewing, most Maillard products appear during the kilning of grains, producing darker malts with distinct caramel, biscuit, and chocolate flavours.
Over 7 varieties of such malts were used to create our version of a historical beer style. Due to its colour, this new elemental beer was coined after the only nonmetallic element that is a dark brown liquid element at room temperature. Test your reaction to it.
