Well for one it has more body, no homebrew twang, no tell-tale sugary taste, better head retention & much more enjoyable to drink. We all know we can make better than megaswill but there a still a few pubs that deliver a nice beer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found a good all grain is so much fresher tasting than a good kit and kilo, having said that ive banged out a couple of rubbish all grains too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know what you mean, I am only a newcomer to AG but even a couple of mates commented on the difference in the all over beer taste but you still have to get things right, I have been fortunate & have had some pretty good first hand advice by people who know what they are doing, it helps tremendously. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic Brewing Co Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I thought I would sneak in on this thread because we are drinking, my lovely next door neighbours Paul & Liz came over for a drink at Phil's Bar & Grill. It is a fairly regular occurrence & I am often asked to go next door to their house. My point is how good is it to have good neighbours, even the from across the road call in so it makes life a pleasure. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 COOPERS REAL ALE I have this in the keg ATM & of course there were a few bottles left including a 2L Growler, it's hard to describe the different taste, not much real ( pardon the pun ) difference but the kegged version delivers much more punch & of course more foam, nevertheless I am not disappointed in it. This will always have a place in my list of preferred 'stock' beers. I might add the hops come through a little more pronounced from the keg. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Well I feel I should issue a warning to all those that are considering making the move to kegging ... ( as OD has mentioned I have only been doing it for two minutes ) @Aussiekraut made a valid remark " you can't see the butcher's bill, " so consumption is a little unknown as opposed to looking at the empties on the sink. I think I have this under control but I am still experimenting with the flow control on the Nukatap, I just turned it back a bit so a little less heady. It is though a wonderful experience to be able to pour a beer whenever you want. Cheers. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woolies Lager on the right. I'm going through some Brew A's at the moment. It's an excellent kit beer. I just make it with a 1.5kg tin of liq light malt and find it doesn't need anything more than that. Beautiful. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamus O'Sean Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Side-By-Side Taste Test Modus Operandi Former Tenant Red IPA. Click on the link for my recipe. Both beers have a very similar aroma. Theirs has a bit more caramel. Mine is a bit more fruity. Flavour-wise, theirs has a smooth sweetness with a subtle bitterness. Mine has similar flavours, but with a fair bit more bitterness. Gee, do I call them the same beer or a different beer? Not enough to call them the same beer and not enough to call them different. This is my second attempt at this beer. The first version seemed closer (but I did not do a side-by-side test). At the time, I also thought the first one was not bitter enough. With the second version, I consciously took longer with the bittering additions. However, I might have gone a bit too far with it. Still, both great beers. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had never heard of them before your previous posts & I checked out their website, they have one of the largest ranges of beers I have ever seen. I might try a few of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click on the link for my recipe. look at this way, its your take on that beer looking at them from your photo without tasting you would say you have the colour and clarity of the beer great. you cant pick the difference there you have a nice head going on yours but i suspect that is becuase the real mcoy was poured 1st and at different pour speed then the beer you poured over all it looks a very tasty beer 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
