AussieJosh Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 I had one on Monday, I thought it was ok but i could personaly not have more then one at a time, But it was also a new taste in a beer for me! I had not had a dark beer that tasted like that before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB2 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 I have bad memories of having to drink cherry flavoured medicine as a young lad - if it stirs up this memory, I'm shot [sick] If the cherry character is more like Kriek, things should be fine [sideways] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PB2 Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Bought a 6-pack of Malt Runner today[biggrin] Tonight I sampled; Courage Brewery Directors and Wells BOMBARDIER Premium Bitter. Both brew labels talked their hop and malt characters up more than they presented [roll] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muddy Waters Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Do you do your sampling at work or home Paul? If you've had an easy day at the office does that mean you go home sober? [lol] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB2 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Sampling happens at work, at home, the city, the hills, interstate, overseas... [tongue] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Having some Malt Runner right now! Not getting the cherry notes (probably because of my slight cold...[devil] ) Getting a fair whack of malt sweetness, can taste the chocolate malt. It's really fizzy.... I'm gonna test the fg with the hydrometer and see what the gravity is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB2 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Not happy with the smell - reminds me of spent grains, two days on, after being spread on the front verge for the birds [pinched] Quite fizzy with residual sweetness. Struggled to get cherry character. This beer does not inspire me and I would not attempt to replicate it[sad] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Ok Thirsty, The FG was around 1.014 which makes the OG about 1.051. (72% attenuation) If you want to make it probably use a low bitterness kit with a can of dark liquid malt and some more DME to get it up to 1.050. No extra malt and use lager yeast. But like Paul said, nothing spaecial.....[crying] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
