I just had one of my k & k Coopers Pale Ales & now the AG version American Pale Ale -a huge difference, it is still only young but the hops are shining through, I still can't believe I made this by boiling up a bag of grain. Bring it on. Cheers.

Looks good mate. I'm glad you can tell the difference and this is only the first attempt 🙂

Thanks AG, I certainly can tell the difference, it has more body, a different taste even, despite having issues on brew day I think it turned out OK. I have things set up in ready for the next brew (soon) but I am preparing for a keg/tap installation so hopefully it will be a down hill ride from here. Cheers. 🍻

Looks great Toner. What lager yeast did you use mate?

Cheers Mick, I used the Coopers lager yeast 15g (not the German lager yeast) and a yeast sachet from a can of 86 days pilsner I had. 
I then re-used that slurry in another Aussie pub lager. 
Im not sure exactly what yeast Coopers sell as their neutral “lager yeast” but it’s pretty neutral which is what I like in lagers🤞🍻

Just cracked the top off my K&K Partial beer which is a year old, even though I brew AG now I still have a few tallies of K&K in the brew dungeon.

 Ozzy IPA I call it, good carbonation and nice.

‘I’ll put the recipe I used up if anybody is interested( had to scour through my notes ).

1 x Pale Ale Can

1 x Master Wheat Malt Can

60g Crystal Malt & 150g Wheat Malt hopped with 10g Victoria Secret & Eclipse steeped overnight.

Dry hopped 30g Vic Secret & Eclipse on day 4.

15g Morgan’s Premium Ale (English) Yeast.

OG - 1040

FG - 1008

Fermented@19 degrees for 10 days, CC 4 days.

That looks like something I would drink RD, it's nice to have few stashed, looks nice & punchy. 🍻

Yeah @Classic Brewing Coit is nice & punchy, not too bitter.

I must have around 60 or so tallies in boxes varying from 1yr to 6 months old.

As I keg I generally give the tallies to family or mates to sample. ( Except for one mate who is a staunch XXXX drinker, best beer on earth he reckons, won’t even take a sip of my stuff, silly boy 🤣🤣)

Yeah some of them never learn do they. XXXX drinkers remind me of the green can drinkers 🤮

Stout - yes, it's not a coffee. Strong @ north of 9%. Bitter, dank, chocolatey. Nothing but Superpride and good grain choices. My stouts rock.

Nice work I have Super pride in the freezer as discussed before, am thinking of using it in the hazelnut Porter when I get around to it!

Good on yer fellas!
Well done on the AG Phil! There’s something special about it that’s for sure, even if it makes your brew day quite a bit longer…

My mill is held up at customs but I got a call to say it’ll be delivered. Hope the PoR hops get through. 
I’ve got a brew day lined up this weekend: just got the grains for a Guinness. Got myself a bottle of nitro blend too…

Yep at the end of the day it is well & truly worth the effort. I am glad I have taken this step (s) ... it's only money !! 🤔
