Thanks Liam! Is the Yuzu juice over there blended with something else? I wish I could source some fresh yuzu but don't think that's possible here in the HRM, if I were back in Toronto or Vancouver I'm sure I could find itCorneliusAlphonse wrote: ↑Thu Jun 21, 2018 8:44 amI don't think I've actually seen straight yuzu juice even here in japan - also I think you might want some of the rind to really get the aromatics.
I guess what I mean is, i see lots of things with yuzu as an ingredient (ponzu, different flavoured things, etc), and i see fresh yuzu (and other japanese citrus) pretty regularly, but I've never seen the juice sold. That said, I haven't been explicitly looking for it, and I live in a pretty small community which wouldnt have all the options!wcturnedec wrote: ↑Thu Jun 21, 2018 9:02 amThanks Liam!

Ok make sense, some folks over on Reddit have been pointing me to a few places in Halifax (Pete's, Independent Mercantile, Asian grocer over in Dartmouth etc).CorneliusAlphonse wrote: ↑Thu Jun 21, 2018 9:56 amI guess what I mean is, i see lots of things with yuzu as an ingredient (ponzu, different flavoured things, etc), and i see fresh yuzu (and other japanese citrus) pretty regularly, but I've never seen the juice sold.

might be worth asking somewhere like Pete's, or the asian grocery stores - they'd be the ones to get fresh yuzu, if anyone. but that'd be seasonal, maybe nov to march i'd guess. Mostly what i see in shops now is standard citrus from other countries.
PS how was the Godspeed beer? I've been wanting to try some - i was in tokyo just a day off from when he was selling some over here, back in January ish.
I've got pure yuzu juice I could part with enough for a batch or 2 for you. I use it to dose into kegs now and then when the mood strikes, it's extremely potent and tasty. I've used it in IPAs, DIPAs and stouts, all delicious. Takes maybe 20ml per keg.wcturnedec wrote: ↑Wed Jun 20, 2018 9:44 amHey folks,
Had a can of Godspeed's Yuzu Saison at the BG and loved it and wanted to make something similar at home, anyone know of spot in the HRM that might sell Yuzu juice?
That would be amazing Nash, thanks! I had memory of you using it in the past but couldn't find any info on any of your past beers using yuzu.NASH wrote: ↑Thu Jun 21, 2018 11:36 amI've got pure yuzu juice I could part with enough for a batch or 2 for you.

Are you around the brewery today or tomorrow? Whatever time works for you I could swing by on my bike.
I order it in out of Montreal. There's tons of it all over Amazon and other places but more often than not it's 2nd or 3rd pressing, blends, or diluted but the real deal is out there to be had but be prepared to pay for it.CorneliusAlphonse wrote:where'd you get straight yuzu juice Nash? just curious/posterity!
