It's a bit of experimentation on my part with heavy influence from a dubious Facebook page. 2 x cans of Woolies "Larger". 1 x can of homebrand mango slices. 2 x little cans of HB passionfruit pulp and about 20g of Pride Of Ringwood hops. I boiled and mashed the fruit together with the hops for about 5 minutes. Then I strained the "fruit/hops tea" into the mix on brew day. I don't have the patience or energy to dry hop later. I'm a bit set and forget minded. It has definite fruitiness flavour about it but I reckon the key to it tasting so smooth is I used reactivated Coopers commercial yeast from some Sparkling Ale stubbies. Cheers! Just a follow up on this beer. It was easy drinking and I enjoyed it but I've tried another variation without the fruit and used Galaxy hops for the first time ever. The Galaxy have given a better result and are much simpler to add than tins of fruit. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in Big W recently grabbing a few things & a guy next to me asked why they only stocked Galaxy Hops & I said probably they are the most popular. I assume they figure it would be impossible to stock a bigger range for obvious reasons. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So things like hops aren't on top of their priority list. Those with more ambition (not judging, before I get hopelessly misunderstood again ) will consult their LHBS to get their "bits". 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I agree, Brigalow just include those in their stock list to give them a reasonable range of HB products for the novice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussiekraut Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 Rye Lager. A week and a bit in the keg but coming along nicely. M54 makes some nice pseudo lagers. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ben 10 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Flanders Red from the bottle. Several have tried this beer, it is a winner. Now aside from the cherry notes it is developing some grass/ hay characteristics, really friggin nice and complex. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone buys and uses these then I suggest getting the same hop from a LHBS and hopefully they will be a lot fresher and would make a big difference. Not singling out @jennyss here as an example but Jen, and others, try some real fresh Galaxy from your LHBS and you will see/smell/taste what I mean.
