Marijuana In Beer
Quote:

He had three pieces of advice for homebrewers doing a pot beer. First, don't insert the cannabis during the boil-"you'll only destroy it!" Since THC dissolves in alcohol but not water, the beer should ideally have undergone primary fermentation before it's dry*hemped. Secondly, for a base, marijuana brewer #2 recommends a beer style that can tolerate a vigorous dry*hopping, such as a porter or American pale ale . Lastly, the beer should be consumed as soon as possible for the cannabis to have maximum effect. It's the brewer's experience that THC breaks down in the presence of heat and light, and deteriorates with age. "After a year, your beer may be interesting, but it won't be psychoactive."
