G'day put on the coopers Irish stout 1 kg of dark malt etc. Thought it tasted like she needed some extra hops? 'Twas thinking maybe dry hoping it? Does anyone have a suggestion on which type of hop I should use? Cheers'

Not bad' next batch no sugar.

Just bottled the stout, I've tasted it so far and as far as I can tell it tastes very much like a coopers best extra stout, this is a good sign as I normally drink the best extra. I don't usually take an alcohol reading I find if I just swish the left overs round in the bottom of the fermenter...

Hops are part of the hemp family, I wonder how a bit of weed would go? Skunk weed maybe?

Sounds like you got ya self a good ol' fashioned yeast infection? You know your Mrs can suffer the same itch?

Crush ya ginger in a garlic press and boil for as long as you can? Ginger is a great anti-inflammatory. Do you get sore in the joints? Maybe help with a good ol fashioned case of the gout?

Like biting into a fresh apple? Get out the ol' heshon bags these ones have been soaked in the stuff. Remember Jesus turned water into wine. I heard if you put water and sugar and yeast into an old wine barrel you get wine? Maybe Jesus was onto something?

This one cheap and nasty? For people with no taste buds. My ok' man reckons XXXX has no taste... He also has three valves to his kidneys, so apparently according to his doctor is a piss drinking machine...
