Hairy Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 @Graubart It will be interesting if you can decide between the two. It looks like a fence sitter to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic Brewing Co Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 I think @Graubart drinks two beers at once, I do like the look of the one of the left. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha I seem to spend my time trying to make things less dark haha... And now it seems mine was for once was too light? ... according to convention and it was nice to compare to an original. On the other hand it does not matter that much - as you point out there is a range. My last run on beers has been dominated by Vienna, Munich, Maris Otter and Voyager Veloria - all more golden amber-ish than Pale... only just got some lighter malt in so will be having a crack at some lighter coloured brews again And my next Hefeweizen I might go darker... am thinking even of a Weizenbock maybe... maybe a bit like the famous Vitus (haha if I can get anywhere near it that is) Had the Vitus a while back. Smashing beer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RepSpec Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 (edited) Mr Banks "triple deke" triple fruited gose. Holy shit this was good. Pours like juice, mango is prominent, then the sour... They just don't do big IPA's Shame they are quite expensive. A 4 pack of this and a can of their new DDH DIPA "running the night" .....$48 I mean they are 500ml cans, and I don't do it often...unless they bring back their raspberry gose. Wait why am I justifying myself to you guys Edited February 18, 2021 by RepSpec 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickers Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 still working my way through a mixed hawkers sixer in the work fridge for friday beer o'clock Hawkers (Vic) Pilsner 5.0%. not a lot to say about this one but it is one i highly recommend. looks like a beer, smells like a beer, tastes like a beer. nothing really stands out as such, just a nice balance of everything working together. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pale Man Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I know I know. I don't mind a VB. Rather that than any other mega swill. I'm kegging as we speak and AG going down Monday. @Graubart GB I'd kill for one of your beers right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG the most horibilstic beer imaginable, however risking a horrid headache & nasty taste, I suppose any beer is better than no beer. Only my opinion of course.

Hey @Pale Man PM it sounds like you are well on track taking most swift and incisive corrective action to remedy the dire situation And yes mate... if you were within cooee (although I meself am having a little time off the grogs) there would be a somewhat limited Brewery product range available: Alt, Hibiscus Vienna and Rye on tap, with a few HWs in bottles, which might assist in quelling a hard-earned thirst with real beer But am conscientiously working on bringing back the Graubartigebräu inventory to full capacity for some post-Easter festivities 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Plain old Coopers Pale Ale recipe - day 14 - busting to try one as I added the Morgan's Pride of Ringwood Hops. This to me even green is exactly was I was looking for - freshness !! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must taste great. I had a mate around & we knocked off 2 x PET bottles & then had Coopers Pale Ale Stubbies afterwards & he couldn't tell the difference, I could because of the hop add. I will keep you posted Bearded One as they call you, but I think you are really a Pirate. Cheers Phil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickers Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 another one from the mixed sixer in the work fridge for beer o'clock friday in a frosty glass Hawkers (Vic) IPA 6.0%. not my favourite one from the range but i don't drink IPAs so i can't really gauge how well it hits the style. a well made beer with lots of life, good head and retention and plenty of flavour, it just doesn't do it for my personal tastes though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John E Miller Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Bought a six pack mix pack at Dan Murphy's today, mostly beer styles I've brewed but never actually tried commercial versions of! Today was Kolsch. Tasted like mine so I'm happy to have hit the mark 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
