I second this... the pale ale tin will be much better with cascade.

I tried one once acouple of years agao and I the one I got must have being in the shop for a while. It was very bland (watery tasting). Haven't gone back to them but may try again with some hop additions one day.

Great! didnt realise that... ff to danos i go :icon_chickcheers:

Yeah please remember to post back with results as I'm very interested. :chug:

Would also like to know if anyone has had any joy with this hop or has any experiences to share with this hop?

I always find that the Coopers Canadian Blonde a good base to experiment with.

Great thanks.

I've used the cascade imperial voyager pale ale can before and havent touched that brand again. It was terrible. I've never brewed such crap before. Left it for 6 weeks and it still sucked. Tipped it out on the lawn. (i dont think the lawn even enjoyed it) :) I'm now use mostly coopers and...
