The Melba & Galaxy Hops provide a nice bitterness & taste. fair to say this was my overall favourite off the tap during my quick trip to adelaide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to try and make it soon. Have a go at the Coopers Sparkling tin @jennyss. You probably wont replicate the commercial version, but with the skills you're building you'll make a very nice homebrewed version. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theoretically your own brews would go in "What are you drinking" & commercial beers would go in "Todays Tastings" but it ain't a big deal. Just saying, that's all. A while ago some members got quite upset about it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back Brewing Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 What makes it so special is its my first brew I've put down after many many years. Surprisingly I was waiting for the twang but it never eventuated. Got another one ready to keg so no stopping me now. Hmmmm really thinking about AG now it looks so streamlined with equipment like the Brewzilla. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmm really thinking about AG now it looks so streamlined with equipment like the Brewzilla. I find that kegging a k & k brew & because you aren't adding sugar to carbonate it as the CO2 takes care of that, there is no twang. AG is a totally different ball game as if you get it right, it is far superior. The nice tightly formed foamy head you get from CO2 compared to a carbonated bottle of sugary ice creamy froth really stands out. Go the BrewZilla, they do a great job unless you are rich & can afford Grainfather. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back Brewing Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 (edited) Sparkling ale, DME, Crystal malt ( steeped ) Amarillo hops and Nottingham yeast it come up a treat.

Kegory Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 I had planned to attend, and was quite looking forward to, a structured tasting with the local home brew club tonight. However, I'm still recovering from a cold I picked up at GABS and reluctantly concluded I'd better not go there and cough over people. Instead I'm having an unstructured, progressive tasting at home. Hix Beer, Brown Ale. Hix Beer, Dbl Chocolate Porter. Hix Beer, Irish Stout. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pale Man Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 This is why it's called Sparkling Ale. Look at that perfect carbonation. And beautiful taste to go with it. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I agree, if I was allowed only one brand of beer, I would be happy with the Coopers range - there isn't a bad one in there, unlike many other brands although the Sierra Nevada/Big Shed/Three Chins Brewing range are all good. There are so many crappy 'so called craft beers' out there nowadays they end up giving the industry a bad name. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't work with my tastes. @Hoppy81 beers i dont class as modern day funky craft beers. Just very tasty down to earth beers. He's nailed it. I'd like to see him add a traditional hefeweizen to his range. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for the love, one day I'll definitely do a Hefe, I still have my Old Ale I need to release one day when I can keep up with 6 brews haha, it's quite similar to Theakston old peculiar. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kegory Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 King Goblin Imperial Ruby Ale. Not as good as the standard Hobgoblin Ruby Ale, IMO. The alcohol taste overpowers the ruby ale flavour. Still, I had to try it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
