Worthog Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 ENGLISH IPA Nothing flash about the picture and nothing flash about the brew - except I brewed TWO YEARS AGO! Bottled in a PET. Carbonation good. Been refrigerated for greater than 12 months. The taste @ 23 August 2020 is brilliant. Based on a Coopers Real Ale can, I hope some of my notes make sense to you. Batch 55: English IPA-2 (Coop Real Ale) FV2 23 Litre Brew. 1.7kg Real Ale, 1.5kg LLME, 750g LWME, 300g Light Crystal, 200g Carapils, 20gms/20gms Challenger Hop @ 20/7m, 40g Hallertau Mittelfruh chuxed Dry Hop (day5-8), Nottingham Yeast rehydrated plus Kit Yeast pitched dry = 18g. OG: (predicted 1057) Sat 21/7 1055 FG: (predicted 1014 6.0%) Thu 26/7 1015 CC, DH, Mon 30/7 1013 6%, Remove DH, CC IBU/EBC: 43/20 Bott: 7/8/18 Comments: Wort start 19c. Rehydrated Nottingham pitched in at 24c. Kit yeast pitched dry on top. Ferment temp set to 18c. 25/7/18: Dry hop 40g Hallertau Mittelfruh (chux) 30/7/18: Remove and squeeze dry hop. CC 7/8/18: Bottle. Taste ok. Hops not powerful aroma. Subtle 22/11/18: After 14 weeks this beer is getting better. Nice melded grain/hop profiles. Licorice arriving. 8/8/19: licorice gone. Nice melded tastes 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otto Von Blotto Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 A pale ale I kegged about 3 weeks ago. Can't even remember the recipe now, but it tastes pretty good. Got lazy and didn't dry hop it or use polyclar, but did put isinglass in it a few days before it was kegged. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lettucegrove Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Hey @Otto Von Blotto how does this recent non dry hopped beer compare to your regular dry hopped ones? Much different? Worth the extra 100 or so grams of hops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Von Blotto Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Yeah, in future I'll probably not skip dry hopping these beers. Lacked aroma. Keg is now empty as well so there's nothing on tap, but I have a pilsner in the lagering phase in a fermenter, and brewed a red ale yesterday so I'll make up a yeast starter tomorrow and get that one fermenting on the weekend or early next week.

MitchBastard Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 My latest west coast pale ale. Maybe my 3rd or 4th go at developing some kind of pale in happy with. This ones almost there. She’s a dank little thing Which is what I wanted. although next time I might ditch the centennial and just go Columbus, and cascade in the kettle and simcoe as a dry. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve done the Three Cs Pale Ale which was excellent. Thinking of doing either the mosaic or the citra blonde ale next.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titan Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 XPA again. This beer just gets better and better. Hops are really popping. Not sure if its the kveik or my very first water addision of epsom salts (1 teaspoon) into the strike water. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titan Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Dupplebock, another spectacular beer. Clarity is great, warm malty sweetness, around 7% abv. This would be a beer you drink after your dessert. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
