Carbed beautifully. Weird and funky. Love it. Colour and clarity is exceptional You're going to need some pizza for that... I've been getting stuck into a 6-pack of Cooper's Vintage and a few bottles of my Imperial Brown and Black DIPL over the last week or two. All very tasty indeed! And I've discovered just how good (and cheap) Gordon Graham's Black Bottle is... The old version in a green bottle of all things anyway, heard the new version in an actual black bottle is pretty bad, so I'm making this one last. But after that lot I'm glad to have a 5% abv stout on tap in the fridge. This was done with Edinburgh ale yeast, Coopers base malt, a combination of light and medium crystal malts, chocolate malt and roasted barley. It's really, really nice.

PaddyBrew2 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 My first AG Citra Mosaic IPA. It’s about five weeks in the bottle and it gets better and better each week. The aroma and bitterness is still very much prevalent. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched practically the rest of the day as she didn't wake up again, and got to bed about 4 this morning had a few of my brown ales while watching it too. Oh well, Ashes series in England only happen every four years so I can justify a few late weekend nights. I don't know if I'll see much of it tonight as I'll be at a party, guess it depends when the Mrs wants to come home. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m lucky to live in a time where you can start off using kits that are of a good quality compared to the older days but the more you learn the more you want to drive it . Ive done an IPA , a stout, a Witbeir and next I’m gonna do a Black IPA The limits are boundless 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although not as late a night as you given we have the time difference in our favour. Was so good seeing the poms crash like that. They were so confident after Thursday 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think overall my favourite but I’d like to get into blending yeasts this year I think. Also gonna try the DuPont strain this year too. Dupont on its own is a major PITA. No matter what you do it will stall/go slow. Closed ferment. Open ferment. Expect a 21 day ferment. Depends on your taste Cap but blending 3724 with belle is my favourite. Mid way between extreme funk and mild funk. With no stall problems. A sub 7 day finish and a ~1002 ish end OG. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenyinthewestofsydney Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Out in the garden planting the veggies for spring and rehydrating with a mosaic and galaxy pale ale which was fermented with S04. Not my best but a nice and refeshing drop. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
