BlackSands Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 3 hours ago, The Captain!! said: Not that I care to get them just wondered if they are now not grown anymore. Yup, still grown... if they weren't I wouldn't have been able to obtain them and use them in this brew! Green Bullet is still used in some local megaswills, Steinlager being one that comes to mind. Also, Blackrock use it for bittering in some of their kits, but aside from that it doesn't get much mention anywhere. Similarly with the other two hops Sticklebract and Dr. Rudi, all having largely been displaced by more more popular new world varieties. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddyBrew2 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Just drew my first AG NEIPA from the keg. I call it the Holy Mary IPA as it’s a virgin in a lot of senses. It’s only in the keg since Thursday. The bitterness is spot on. I thought it would be more bitter than the style allows but I’m pretty happy. The hops hit like a fruit bomb. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lab Cat Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) Lightning Strike Recipe. Coopers Canadian blonde, malt, EKG and Cascade (subbed for the N Brewer, which I couldn't get). Needs more hopping to get flavour, for me the boil is too small/short. Edited November 23, 2019 by Lab Rat 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lab Cat Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) Caribbean (Mex) Siesta from the recipe page. Had to sub the calypso for Lemondrop and Cascade. Result is very faint lemon aroma and a light tasting beer. Could do with more hop, but thought I bittered this quite a lot. Still works as summer quaffing. Has some haze.

Otto Von Blotto Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Tap "list" here after today's kegging of the centenarillo. I just estimated the ABV of the blend being half and half 4.6 and 4.94, avg 4.77. Drinking a red ale at the moment, the blend is on serving pressure gas so it should be carbonated by the weekend. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MitchBastard Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 The seXPA carbed and ready to be consumed. Really liking the single hop late and FO addition of just mosaic. Dry hopped with mosaic also. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSands Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) Getting to the end of this Helles batch. And, as is always the case... it's just now starting to taste like a fairly decent beer! Was sickly sweet earlier in its life but that disappointing aspect seems to have diminished quite a bit now. Still too sweet for my tastes though. Edited November 27, 2019 by BlackSands 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilltop hops Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 First ever keg and first brew in Robobrew - Simcoe and Chinook AG Pale. Tastes great. I've got another Pale cold crashing at the moment and Im going to buy another keg on Saturday for that. Will be ready for Christmas. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otto Von Blotto Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Good to hear it turned out well mate, looks the goods too. I've got a batch in one FV currently which should be kegged in about 3 weeks or so, looking forward to having it back on tap again, and actually cold this time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
