THIRSTY MATT Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 mate, im hoping its more " james squire amber ale' than "raosty toasty bitter ale'! got an opinion......if ya understand what im saying? (lol) cheers matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THIRSTY MATT Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 nah ya know what...bugger it,,,ill give it a try!! i got a lager on at the moment,,,,,n a strawberry blonde recipe in cupboard,,,,then im doin one!! ill handle it as long as it aint "SUPER ALPHA TOAST". i can handle nutt n choc flavours,,,but i hate toast n i hate the bitterness of warm beer. ya know come to think of it...the only darker beers i have done is some pilseners from the country brewer n ESB...............i hated em! maybe that explains my fear of darker beers!!! a pilsener should be blonde in my opinion ,,anyway....im gonna try it!! have a lovely day! matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PB2 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 It's a good idea to always check the best before date (packaging date) on liquid malt extract and home brew concentrate. The fresher the better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THIRSTY MATT Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 thanks guys. i always do chek them. i just assumed these were meant to be dark.."german style pilz"?? the muntons one was actually called "continental pilsener". ................anyway they sucked :lol: ...what else is doin? matt :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
