Climatologist Martin Mozny of the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute and colleagues say that the quality of Saaz hops -- the delicate variety used to make pilsner lager -- has been decreasing in recent years. They say the culprit is climate change in the form of increased air temperature.
No wonder I don't really like Pilsners. Do you think climate change accounts for the tinny flavor in lower quality pilsners or is that something else entirely?
