@John E Miller Parity Amber Ale is in the Recipe Section. It was a Recipe of the Month years ago. 

Yes.  But our version added a Crystal Grain steep plus doubled the dry hop.  I do not remember exactly what variations @stquinto settled on, though.  Take a Coopers recipe for inspiration and make it better I say.

Who gave you the right to enjoy so many beautiful things at once? 

What is a parity ale? And where are you?

Mate, we’re in Switzerland and managed to get away skiing to the Alps for a few days. All you can get is take out food and drinks but I planned ahead and filled the car with home brew for the “after ski” session.

The parity ale is one of the recipes and Shamus suggested a tweak to the recipe - worked a treat. I’ll post it from my notes when I get home

Goodness me @stquinto I am gunna hafta work very very hard to try to catch up to that sort of beautiful Beerography !?!  ... after Easter.

(Beerography = Beer Photography.... happy with that definition  @MitchBastard Mitchie?)

Am with @John E Miller John on this one.... WTF are you !?!  Great photo - and what style and where is the Wurst/Salami from? 😀

Sounds like a good definition: beerography. I looked through my phone and that’s all there is, along with pictures of steak for some reason. 
The wurst is from the local butcher, can’t remember what but it has a smokey pork flavour to it. Goes great with the beer - the hops complement the smokey taste

Seems a logical connexion haha @stquinto  ; )      Wurst und Brot und Bier!

Thanks to the encouragement and guidance of this Site's mighty @Green Blob Green Blob I have finally found myself making some pork cured products as well as the beer now 😋

Some crackin' stuff over on the All things Salumi thread

Partial 10 CMFF IPA

My usual brew with Maris Otter, Munich and caramalt, LDME and wheat DME

This time used Coopers pale ale can instead of the lager - think this is why it’s a bit darker than normal.

First time using Falconers Flight and I am bloody liking it!

Plays very nice with the Citra and Mosaic.

Initially thought the FF was a bit flowery for my tastes but is singing now at 7 days in the keg!!

Only dry hopped for 24 hours before CCing so hop aromas are maybe a bit muted, still had enough in the late boil to shine through.

It is nice and balanced though - bloody yum!

Photo doesn’t do it justice!!

Cheers legends

James

Still very young but quite tasty already. A take on a hefe weizen, using wheat, Pilsener, Vienna and a little light crystal malt, hopped with Tettnanger for bittering and Mandarina Bavaria for aroma and flavour. Brewed with MJ Bavarian Wheat yeast. It needs to mature a little more but is a very drinkable beer. Head formation and retention aren't that great yet but another couple of weeks should fix that.
