How do you pronounce…..?

Submitted by Wild on Fri, 2007-10-26 09:45

Thought this would be fun. While in the LHBS, I’ve heard people pronounce brewing words in different ways. Feel free to post the ones you know and ask the ones you don't. Hopefully with all this knowledge all will be answered.

I'll go first

Guinness = pronounced gin-es

Gueuze = Jhe – zay

Trub = troob

Wort = wert

Helles = Hell – es

Dunkel = Dunk – ul

Bock = bach (with an ah)

Weizen = Vy – tzen

Hefe Weizen = Hay - Fah Vy - tzen

Reinheitsgebot = Rhine-HEIGHTS-geh-boat

Leinenkugel = LINE - en - COOUG - ell

Lagunitas = La-goo-knee-tas

Carafa = cuh - RAF - fuh

Carapils = ca-ruh-PILZ

Kräusen = KROY-zen

Lauter = LOW-ter (OW as in OUCH)

Vorlauft = FOR - lowft (ow as in ouch)

Wyeast = why-yeast

Dubbel = doo-bul

Any others?

I've always wondered about

I've always wondered about the word Lovibond. It's a proper noun so it's not in the dictionary.
Is it "LUV" (with a long U), or LOVE?
No clue here wild.

I've always heard and used it as Love.
