How much time you got? There are some valid publications going deeper into it. I put 3 in my personal archive to check them later more deeply. It's

DOI: 10.1111/j.1931-0846.2014.12038.x
High Points: An Historical Geography of Cannabis by Barney Warf (2014)

http:// journals.openedition.org/echogeo/17650
American Weed: A History of Cannabis Cultivation in the United States by Nick Johnson(2019)

Cannabis Domestication, Breeding History, Present-day Genetic Diversity, and Future Prospects by Clarke & Merlin (2016)

Should give at lot of background information on modern genetics and heritage, with special focus on american breeding/cultivating/culture.

But will take half a day to go through all of that I guess :D
Thank you for the @MROrganicGreenz

The Clarke article looks very interesting and relevant! Is cannabis moving towards British bulldog/Pug breeding territory due to human selection is the gist I got from the abstract.

At the moment I am very time rich and money poor.

These all seem to be behind paywalls unless you know of free version?

Put the DOI in there. Also if there is no DOI, google the title. One of them ist on researchgate.org. sci hub normally has most publikations older than one or two years :)

That's not even legal in beer land. How are you meant to drink it. Well.. what's left of it. It's like the gas regulator exploded or something.

The head on your beer is a protective layer, you are meant to sip through, but not consume. That much of it is just selling you froth that's in the way. Literally illegal in the UK.

Quite a few Australian craft breweries are pushing the alcohol content to 8% and above.
Starts to taste like they have mixed it with spirits when it gets much more than 10% I reckon.
I tried this once and it was shit!

The F111 was only just drinkable.

A category of craft beer known as Imperial IPA or Double IPA.

Lots of grain and lots of hops. Not my cup of beer for sure.
I had a look. They are putting sugar in. Probably tastes like turbo. At 18% it's probably fortified, or absolutely foul.
Ale yeast is the fruity choice, right for an IPA. I think 10% would kill it though. While anything else isn't an IPA.

Be fine served cold enough though. So you can't taste it. That seems popular stateside. It's just not warm enough :)

It looked like beer and smelt like beer. It tasted like beer mixed with Vodka.
Yeah it was terrible. 🤣
