ben 10 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I believe I bought the second last ROTM at about 1pm. So you bought the first one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Sox Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 No second last ROTM, they told me on the phone that there were only two left. I would have loved to have bought both but I couldn't afford it so I only bought one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerlust Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I haven't got my head around the Belgian IPA style just yet. Belgian yeast influences + solid wheat malt flavours + IPA bitterness... Hmmm. I think I'd have to try a commercial one first before I'd brew 20+ litres for myself. Certainly a very interesting beer on the surface with a lot going on. Cheers, Lusty.

Steve The Novice Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 I received my ROTM today (Trappist Coaster). The yeast is 4 months out of date. Has anyone else received out of date yeast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LJV13B Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Hey lads how are the ROTM 2016 Extra Strong Vingate Ale's tasting? From what I've read here the recipe's great I just hope it's like it is from the tap because it's fanbloodytastic:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Sox Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 ESVA ROTM is brilliant, I had another bottle on the weekend. This month's ROTM looks pretty good. I will be making it tomorrow or the weekend. I think Coopers have dug themselves a hole.....what do you follow up Trappist Coaster? It'll be interesting and I'll be keenly watching. By the way my yeast was fine expire 10/17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinga Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Coopers customer service exceeds as usual, email received before 9am this morning confirming another packet of yeast is on its way. Thanks Coopers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Payno Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Can anyone recommend the Pacific Summer Ale form last time? I didn't get it last time and wondering if it is worth the effort?....what is the Summer Hops like? - cant get them at my LHBS, otherwise I could replicate the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jag1525229524 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I make Pacific Summer Ale all the time. It's my favourite beer and I always go back to it. I'm happy and lucky that I ordered it the first time it was offered as the ROTM, and every time they offer it, I order one. When they don't offer it, I make my own using ingredients from brewing shops. I noticed that despite the same ingredients, it always tastes different. Is it possible that the hop pellets Coopers offers are better quality (fresher?) than those from brewing shops? As for the ROTM 2016 Extra Strong Vingate Ale, I made it and plan to condition it over time and drink slowly. The only thing I don't particularly like about it is the rather harsh alcoholic note in the taste. Will it go away over time, or is it a permanent feature in stronger beers (the Devil's Brew Porter ROTM had a similar strength and similar taste)?

Clint1525229555 Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 I noticed the recipe is different from last year. There is no light dry malt? Any ideas Why or the difference ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Payno Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Well, now we know....Celebration Ale. Made something similar once using the Draught tin and liked it so might do this one again sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaydub Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I might have to give the Festive Funk IPA a go. IPA using Saison yeast sounds too interesting to pass up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
