Gee I hope you are brewing this somewhere near the beautiful Kuto Bay on isle des pins.

Here are a couple of recipes to get you started.  the lawnmower lager is easy and the Julebryg a bit more difficult but will pack the punch you are looking for I guess.

If unsure if you can get ingredients for any of then just use the lager can, plus 1 x packet of Brew Enhancer 1 (if it came in yours as a kit) and also 1 x 500 g packet of dry malt extract. 

If you only have the lager tin, try to get a Coopers brew enhancer 3 and one packet of Coopers light dry malt.  That will get you a reasonable beer and not lemonade.😀

All the best for your brewing.

Cheers - AL

Couple of good answers for a start, if you can tell us your brewing experience the guys can offer more suggestions, in the recipe section at the top there are a couple of old French recipes for a bit of nostalgia you could try.

I don't think that forum members from OS or certain OS I.P. groups/blocks (IT speak) can see the recipes unless they connect via a VPN or by some other trickery Geoff.  I could be wrong for NC as its very local, well sort of.

That's why I posted up those two PDF's.

Plus supplies of ingredients might be limited too and damned expensive.

When I was there a couple of years back a 450 mm pizza for two and just two cans local beer AU$98 at sidewalk cafe in Noumea. Och!

Probably worth it for swimming spots like my favourite at Kuto Bay though,

Cheers - AL

Merci pour toutes vos réponses qui ne me rassurent pas du tout d'ailleurs! 😥 .

Norris; J'ai bien lu à l'intérieur de l'étiquette. J'ai tout le matériel possible mais je ne trouve que les boîtes de conserve dans mon pays, et encore pas toutes.

J'ai juste mis l'eau le contenu de la cannette, et la levure ....... Cela à bullé léger 14 jours .... 1008 stable, j'ai mis en bouteille (goût de bière plate bonne) avec 8g de sucre au litre .....

Qu "es ce que cela va donner ???? Dimanche cela ferra 15 jours donc lundi frigo et on goute !!!

En dehors de mes problèmes de novice, je vie à Nouméa "IBOOZ2" et je vais en effet des fois sur l'île des Pins (Baie de Kuto et toute l'île). Oui la vie est très cher mais il fait bon vivre. Merci pour les recettes! 😉

To be continu...

Thank you for all your answers which do not reassure me at all! 😥. Norris; I read the inside of the label. I have all the material possible but I can only find the cans in my country, and still not all of them. I just put the contents of the can in the water, and the yeast ....... It bubbled lightly for 14 days .... 1008 stable, I bottled (good flat beer taste) with 8g of sugar per liter ..... What will it give ???? Sunday it will be 15 days so Monday fridge and we taste it !!! Apart from my novice problems, I live in Nouméa "IBOOZ2" and I indeed go sometimes to the Isle of Pines (Kuto Bay and the whole island). Yes life is very expensive but life is good. Thanks for the recipes!

Maintenant, c'est votre problème. Vous devez également mettre 1 kg de sucre ou de sirop de sucre. Le sucre de table fonctionnera mais ne donnera pas la meilleure qualité. Essayez 1 kg de sirop doré ou le mieux est du malt sec ou liquide si vous pouvez l'obtenir. Avec la canette, vous obtiendrez une bière d'environ 4,2% si vous voulez plus d'alcool, utilisez plus de sucre.
