This came as a surprise this morning and it seems to be only available in WA? http://www.guinness.com/en-au/thelager.html

Will be my first, anyone going for this or have gone for it? http://www.grainandgrape.com.au/

Guys, xmas is coming and I plan to wash down some home brew with some fatty smoked goose but Im having a hard time finding a ready cook bird. Anyone know where I can get it in Melbourne?

Sounds promising. I do enjoy a good pint of wit beer and I should have gone for wort 3 instead but nevertheless I'm sure I'm going to enjoy this very much. Is it worth keeping in the primary for at least 1 month before bottling? I'm heading away from the 23rd and wont return for the next 2 weeks...

Hello all, First time trying this from G&G and its nicely fermenting at home. All I did was to add 3 liters of water to it and poured the dried yeast packet over it and the magic began I was wondering what modifications that you tried using this in the past that worked for you and all i can...

BigSam, I'm going to hold you up to it. See you end of next winter if I dont find anything by then.

I may have under played my gardening experience here hence the request for seeds. This will be my first time planting hops and the closest I have to do with anything in regards to gardening is killing weeds. I have no idea about Male and Female hops as I though it should be the same and thanks...

folks, do you know of any nurseries in Melbourne that sells hops by the seed? I am hoping to grow a plant or two for next season. Anytime is fine with me Thanks.
