RDT2 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Well seeing as I am trying to make something like this, I thought I should try one! Wow it’s nice! Initially you thinks it’s too rich but the sourness balances it out! It’s like sour patch lollies you just want more the more you drink! This is so dangerous! Wish I had bought another one or two! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha,ha, forgot about this bit. Must have been lucky as at time of brewing I didn't have temperature control. Luckily I brewed it in August and my little beer dungeon would have been around this temperature. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only day 2 in the keg but tastes magnificent. Needs a bit of time to clear up. Expand Glad you are enjoying it @Mickep, so together we broke your curse huh! I hope you saved a soup ladle scoop of the trub for your next AG batch of COPA. Are you going to give your old man a taste? If left in the keg for 4 weeks it will be a clear as a lager but you don't want that because by then the PoR has faded. This beer IMO peaks at 3 weeks in the keg, still nice afterwards but best in the 2 - 3 week area. Well done bloke, I hope you are proud of yourself and also hope that I have not created an AG monster ha ha. Yes all 3 brews this time round including the AG were all good. Phew! I think I've saved more than a soup ladle of trub though. "If left in the keg for 4 weeks.........." You make me laugh Al I've dropped 3 bottles off to Dad, along with some of the Voss Kveik Coopers extract PA and the KL FWK True Blue Bitter with the POR dry hop...he should be good for a few weeks. Thanks for all your help mate - couldn't have got it done without ya - Cheers! Edited March 13, 2023 by Mickep 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just at ambient in the beer dungeon or are they refrigerated? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDT2 Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 I love Red hoppy ales and always have one if there is one on the menu and this one is no exception. At 35 IBUs I think I might have some room to add some more hops late and early and maybe some rye but this is really nicely balanced, so easy to drink! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red devil 44 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 (edited) Well here is my AG keg of Pacific Ale (essentially a Stone & Wood Clone)I bought from the LHBS, already brewed and carbonated. ‘Original version on the right, LHBSon the left. ‘Colour wise pretty close, the LHBS a touch darker. ‘Taste wise, LHBS is much more bitter and a more hoppier aftertaste. Not bad on a stinker of a day in SE Qld. Pool time I think, oh and beer o clock too. Edited March 16, 2023 by Red devil 44 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic Brewing Co Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 This just couldn't taste any better, I can still taste the hops, I am getting a good result with late hopping, about 4 days before kegging. This was kegged 5 weeks ago. Always a minimum of 50gms otherwise personally any less doesn't really cut it. I guess this means the keg is getting low 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
