I didn’t like a commercial one I had recently, I can’t remember what fruit was in it maybe mango but it was horrible almost like straight cordial but I’ve liked the ones with raspberries in them! I tried a strawberry one as well wasn’t a big fan of that either might be the tartness raspberries bring so if you haven’t tried a raspberry one maybe try that???? If you have and didn’t like it I am sorry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kegory Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Lambics can be sour but they can also be sweetened. Kriek Lambics are made with cherries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gut issues, or just don't like them? I don't' mind the odd sour, in fact I have an AG kit from Keg Land to put together - Berliner Weisse. Some of the cheaper commercial sours are a bit yukky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brauhaus Fritz Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Tried my latest brew, only two weeks in the bottle. One can of Coopers Original Pale Ale, one BE2, 2 LDME and dry hopped with 50 gr of Galaxy. It’s nice, beautiful aroma of the Galaxy, but can’t really taste it. So far I am happy. Wifey recons it’s one of the best brews I have ever made. For me it is still a bit green, and I can’t decide how to call it 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stquinto Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Duvel clone, kegged on the 1st of July. It’s beautifully clear (I did add Polyclar), ut’s not quite carbed enough yet. There’s a residual sweetness that would prevent me from skulling too many in a sitting (not a bad thing as it turns out at >8%). I reckon it comes from a sluggish yeast, even though the FG was 1.010, it didn’t stall. Anyway, I want to do another batch but will do a double one this time. I have a year-out-of-date Wyeast 1388 which I will make a starter with a yeast plate, and also make a starter with two packs of MJ41. If the out-of-date one looks iffy I’ll leave it out, and throw an extra pack of MJ in, and hope that the two from a starter do the dog’s work 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of interest, do you have any sweetness problems? What yeast do you use? I so a step mash, and end the fermentation at 26C. Also a 20 cold crash close to 0C. This is from a book “How to brew like a monk” . Lovely drop anyway Cheers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely drop anyway Cheers Its been a long time since I brewed a Duvel Clone, but the last time I did I impressed myself that much I took the day off, I could hardly tell the difference, and in fact prefered mine to the real Duvel. It was a very simple brew too. German Pilsner Malt, White Sugar, Styrian Golding Hops and Lalbrew Abbaye Belgian Yeast. Just a single mash. No sweetness issues. It was a thing of beauty. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Duvel clone looks like coming in at 8.4% in the keg or 8.8% for those that I bottle condition. Just started the cold crash this Friday night having brewed last Saturday. Very quick for such a high ABV brew. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
