Sounds like me. First lager was with s189, similar temp profile. Nice for the first week .....then BAM....butter bomb. Done 2 since with 34/70 and no probs.

ESB Peakhurst have it.

Thanks to all involved. First comp for me and I got a 2nd! Stoked!

So....to clarify. Will there be a posting of winning results here or any at other online location? Are the scoresheets and feedback sent snailmail or email? I cannot find any reference to this.

Will 2 packs fit in the medium satchel?

Any bigger sizes?

Bottles or on tap? Were they fresh? Im not a fanboi and I suppose each to there own etc but i find the hefe particularly is a fantastic example....if its fresh. I had a bad six pack once as it was a bit old and tasted tangy. For me.....The stout is an amazing beer particularly on tap.

Do they sprinkle or rehydrate? *runs for cover*

I second the call for the recipe. This is a damn fine beer!

Kirrawee were in the dark about pick up and a bit miffed about the organisation of this thing when I dropped off. Hope my entries get through. First comp......I'm excited!

Ive had good results with 34/70. Its a weinestephaner strain so cant be too shabby. Is this a problem you have had?

Wow. You got nibbled? Ive had one check me out but then swim under me and i never saw it again. That was a scramble straight onto the reef and i have never been so relieved to touch dry land. Never surfed that spot again.

n00b question..... What the hell is the 4th picture? Hot break? Stupid active Krausen?

I had some fresh fullers esb on cask a few months ago and it was mind blowing. Im going to start trying this style soon. Ive been checking out the podcast archives on The Brewing Network. Lots of good info on this style particularly in "can you brew it". Fullers, Youngs, Hobgoblin etc all have...

I was watching this live last night! I couldn't sleep afterwards. Going for a surf now actually, I will be on the look out for the man in the grey suit a bit more than usual!

Yeah, don't chuck it. It won't be what you planned but it might still be drinkable. I did a similar thing.....wanted to brew a dark lager, stuffed up the lager yeast starter so had to use notto instead at 15c - except the probe fell out of the fridge for almost 2 days. Started cold but...

Got some nice castle pils malt to try....and a bag of hallertau and plenty of 34/70 ready to go. So tonight I'm going to put my skills to the test and go for a clean german lager. Numbers are still subject to change.... OG 1045 FG 1010 Gonna try rests at 55/64/72 then mashout. IBU 30. Small hop...
