I tried one at 2 weeks (it was nice but needed aging) i then tried one at 5 weeks (tasting good, great coconut flavor coming through) i'll Let the last bottle age a few months before i drink it. Can smell the coconut from here... but what a great beer photo !?! Well played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am very much looking forward to trying a new GB recipe in the near future - based on a different kit, with extra bits and boils. Gold Sil! Phhooooooweeeeee. I have a memory of many years ago... brewed a cracking GB... then drank it in large glass with ice and Bundy OP... and after a while... I couldn't feel me feet... or me legs... was a stunning mix... seemed like I was strapped to the chair.... great way to drink OP.... but I think one not for everyday ; ) and with a caution notice applied! Hmmm... must admit it was after a serious early afternoon sesh on Bundy-n-coke to start with... so maybe not so bad if just applied as an afternoon-refreshing-quaffer?

This was a pressure ferment but when i added dry hops through the fermentasaurus sample bottle it foamed up and disturbed the yeast into the brew. Never really settled out before kegging. 25g calypso dry hop. Taste is spot on, infact so good it will be finished before it clears. 🤪 Nice Beer Photo... coriander in the background?

Will deff try this one again. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wow! Good stuff Smashed.... am a ways a way off that level of excellence... will be good to see what you and the newer AG boys come up with going to the next level of excellence and complexity! Reckon that is pretty legendary... I am really only just moving off Kit/extract variations through to All Malt... But I guess I have moved to temp control so that is a positive as well... Anyway... your first AG - well done - sensational - hopefully one day I will get there too........ great stuff!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashed Crabs Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Gave my Toucan Mexican Cerveza a whirl, still needs more time in the bottle but isn't a bad drop at all .. I didn't go hop heavy with this but I'm really enjoying the flavors, very easy to drink and at 6.14% could be dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titan Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 English best bitter partial. Clarity is not there but such a lovely colour and tastes great. Coopers EB can with some added grains and a dry hop of fuggles i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashed Crabs Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Nice titan looks tasty, this style of beer is on my to do list got 2 tins couple hundred grams of Fuggles and EKG ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titan Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Yeah mate the EB kit is fantastic, great on its own if time is short. Add some maris otter and some carapils for body and head. Fuggles or ekg in the boil and some for dry hopping and your on a winner. I think i had some ashbourn and a little victory in this one which gives a nice biskety flavour.

Titan Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Was about 3k of grain plus some dry malt, hence the Special label. Its a big beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowbrew Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 So, i tried one of my Kettle Soured Cherry Berliner Weisse earlier today and im sad to say that it tastes like vinegar. I have never had a batch with this taste and im really upset that it happened to this beer. Oh well, looks like ill just have to try again. Next time i think i will pasteurize the fruit by heating it up with some sugar as per Lustys recommendation. Might try strawberries or raspberries though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titan Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Well here it is, the northern brewers lager. Out of the bottle. Haze i think is due to sediment stir from the bottle but this was expected as the bottles i do are leftovers from kegging. Now the flavour. Im glad i dry hopped this with a little citra, otherwise this would have tasted exactly the same as the steam beer version i did of this one. I hated the steam beer version and this one is verging on some hate mail also. Drinkable all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silmaril Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 You'll need to forgive me for the lack of a photo. Back in April I traveled from Melbourne to Perth on a Virgin flight where I had successfully won an upgrade to Business Class. On that flight I had every intention of taking a photo of the food... but alas it was so good I fell ravenously upon it and devoured it all before even thinking about picking up my phone. Tonight I have experienced the same. I chilled 2 of my Dark Ale bottles, and shared them both with my housemate. This brew was from a Dark Ale can, brew day was 16th Oct, bottled 30th Oct, and first sampled tonight. I had added 500gms of dry dark malt to the otherwise standard Kit recipe. Reader, it was phenomenal! A massive hit of licorice, the sweetness of the malt, a dark ruby colour... I will endeavour to catch a photo of this brew tomorrow. Brew 6 BB Coopers Dark Ale Brew day: 16/10/18 Bottle day: 30/10/18 OG: 1.045 measured. FG: 1.010 Recipe changes: +500 gm dry dark malt. Minimum Drink After (14): 13/11/18 ABV Calc: 5.1% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks mighty fine there Captain. Tapped an Australian Pale Ale today. This was a cheap partial mash of a can of coopers aussie pale ale plus a mash of 4kgs of pale malt which was split in two. Fermented with CCA at 18c and keg hopped with 20 grams each of galaxy and centennial. Tell you what this beer will be my go to "get more stock" beer. Its as easy drinking as they come. Subtle but noticeable hops with a little pear that the CCA is known for. Usually i can taste a kit beer but with this one I cant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
