NBillett09 Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Plain old Coopers Lager. Original brew from the kit. After a couple months it has certainly become quite a good brew for the cheap as chips price! Coopers Lager 1.8kg + Brew Enhancer 2. Also cleared rather well just from time (this haze is the glass condensation). Ambient temp fermentation. Next time round I’ll probably try the lager extract with light liquid malt and a lager yeast and actually ferment it at 12 or so. Maybe some light dry malt also? 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus O'Sean Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 A similar side-by-side taste-test tonight, to the one a few nights ago. Coopers Original Pale Ale versus Shamus' (Coopers) Original Pale Ale. My COPA Ever so slightly fruitier citrus aroma. It does seem to dissipate. A bit less carbonation Similar flavour, combined with a smooth maltiness and balanced bitterness. Seems to have more mouthfeel Commercial COPA Similar citrus fruity aromas, but tempered by more slightly banana-ery yeast aroma. Overall a more lingering aroma. Flavour also matches its aroma. Just a tad more bitter and it lingers. Maybe pH is a bit lower, adding a note of extra bite. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must get a can of THOMAS COOPERS PREACHER'S HEFE Wheat and see if I can make a half decent wheat. Do it, not hard. And if you like add some Lemon Myrtle leaves, great subtle lemon flavour, there is a ROTM 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidM Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 The last of my Coopers IPA Will have to do this one again Soon! Splashed the pour a bit, so it's a bit Headier than it should be. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus O'Sean Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Another side-by-side taste-test. Coopers Sparkling Ale versus Shamus' (Coopers) Sparkling Ale. I say Shamus', but it is largely based on @iBooz2's recipe. Commercial CSA Ever so slightly maltier aroma, otherwise they are very close. Slightly smoother drinking. I think they extra suspended yeast in the commercial CSA balances the bitterness somewhat Shamus' CSA Has a more subtle aroma than the commercial version. Malty and bitter flavour. More bitter than the commercial version. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brauhaus Fritz Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 16 month old and still going strong. ROTM Mr. Sinister Ale. Made with Morgan’s Dark Ale and Chocolate Malt it’s as good as the original recipe I made as well. With 7.8% just not as strong but a nice night cap, it definitely puts you to sleep.. Brew it now and let it condition till the colder month and enjoy it at room temperature. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stquinto Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 My latest: all grain COPA, KnK Regency Red, and a random Belgian Dubbel from at least a year ago. Happy with all of them, but the Belgian takes the wind out of your sails, which is the cleanest euphemism I can think of. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
