My Bar/Dining/Lounge/Brewroom-Office etc are literally chockers with all sorts of glasses & I keep finding little gems in Opp shops etc. I have to stop. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norris! Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 (edited) This time of year reminds me of Christmas back In the States and I was blessed with a package from @Green Blob Thank you Mate I am happier than a kid In a toy store. 1st one up is the Cascade Saison. Good clarity, very slight haze. Smells like candied orange and grapefruit, Very sweet smell that draws you in. Taste is dry, crisp but with body. You want to slam this with your dinner, maybe pasta or something. taste starts off sweet but becomes dry and crisp, very good balancing there. Solid beer, a strong 4/5 as I could drink a keg of this. This saison is very much appreciated. Cheers Norris Edited May 29, 2021 by Norris! forgot photo 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norris! Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 @CLASSIC @Graubart @Green Blob I have bottled up a NEIPA for you each but I ran out of pet bottles for the IPA, and we are in lockdown, so hopefully I can get some on Thursday and head to the post office and send these out. I think they are fair beers but will see what y'all think. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commercial Sample - Bavarian HW - Bavaria being the home of good HW: Weihenstephaner Hefeweizen and Franziskaner Hefeweizen Any others @Aussiekraut AK? I would conscientiously avoid the Schöfferhofer Hefeweizen as it just does not taste like Bavarian Hefeweizen... If you like HW from Frankfurt well help yourself. But there are many ways to the top of the mountain An arvo on the wheats! You were spot on with your recommendations. Weihenstephaner and franzishaner 1 and 2, but have to try again to give a no.1... Weihenstephaner smoother, franzishaner tastier perhaps. Scofferhofer definitely the worst, the Erdinger definitely decent, just off the top 2. Heads up NQR in Melbourne are selling the franzishaner for $4 atm... Might grab a few more tomorrow, good brewing bottles a plus! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Graubster is the expert here, I have had some of them & they are nice but some taste like you just put a handful of wheat in your mouth. As you say those 500ml bottles are great for brewing. Cheers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDT2 Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Tried my Mt Hood Pilsner tonight with S-189 as @Graubart would say bluddy bewdyful nicely balanced and clear no sulphur smell just nice. I made a starter for this one as well might become the norm for lagers. Might need a little more carbonation but holding a small head all the way down very happy cheers 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus O'Sean Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Coopers Hazy IPA Mine Theirs Tropical fruit aroma, quite pronounced and fresh. Fruity flavour, but very sweet. Carbonation pretty disappointing, but just 14 days old. Low bitterness. Supposed to be the same as theirs (27 IBUs). Mine does not taste as bitter or the malty sweetness is too much. This reminds me of @jamiek86's recent failed ESB. I think this would benefit from a 10 minute hop boil. Maybe the Coopers Blonde kit with Liquid Wheat Malt might go better. Much more subtle aroma. Citrus with a tropical background. Better balanced flavour. Nice bitterness. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe put some bottles in a warm place to speed it up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
