    (SE?) QLD Xmas in July Case Swap 15 July 2017

    I won't be staying the night but will bring a Hodgepodge keg of Brown Ale and 2MT yeast. I'll probably bring some pretzels as they're usually a hit.

    (SE?) QLD Xmas in July Case Swap 15 July 2017

    Swap beer updated. First attempt at a sour. I've only just bottled a couple of weeks ago so whilst it will be ready to drink from a carbonation sense, will likely benefit from some bottle age. 1) Winkle - Acerola Tarwe (Redux) - bottled 8/6/17, should be hitting its straps after 8/8/17 2) Liam...

    (SE?) QLD Xmas in July Case Swap 15 July 2017

    Just racked my Lambic from my barrel. Got about 90 odd litres. Seems only fair I that I give up 20 litres for the swap. Will be 18 months old by July

    1. Evoo4u - Julebryg This was just transparent but I couldn't get a decent pick. Haunting aroma of nutmeg, cinnamon and clove. Reminds me of my gingerbread brown. Lacing till last drop. I really enjoyed this. F'ing awesome actually.

    22. Madpierre - Saison First drink after 6 weeks break off the booze. Post mowing the lawn too. You could argue anything would have tasted good, but I agree with previous comments, certainly one of your best beers! Loved it!

    7. Luggy - Oatmeal Stout This has a real richness and warmth to it. Persistent head and nice roasty goodness. Nice beer!

    4. Ballantyne - funktown pale Bottle firm but completely flat. Seemed to have good flavours but unfortunately without the bubbles was hard to drink. Probably just a bad bottle.

    16. Giatuprs - Brett IPA Thankfully I didn't really get much Brett in this. Well made IPA. Good aromatics and bitterness with a bit more complexity than your average IPA.

    24. Tazman1967 - Smoked Saison It's what it claims to be. Smoky and typical of a well brewed saison. Not much to say here, it's going down nicely.

    13. Evoo4u - APA Overcarbed in the pour but nice once it settled. I thought it had nice sweet crystal malts and a good balance of bitterness. There was a faint whiff of sherbet but honestly this tasted more in the English bitter spectrum than APA. Great beer nonetheless.

    3. Liam - impish stout Interesting beer. Pours thick and dense just like you'd expect from an imperial. No head. It's much dryer than I was expecting given the FG. Great experiment. Let's be honest, what beers under 3% have any flavour whatsoever. This has plenty of roasty goodness considering...

    8. Davy - Rye Pale Great clarity. Nice Rye flavour. Overall hits the spot for me on a hot day. I do agree with the other comments that it could use more hops.

    23. Parks - Black IPA My bottle was throbbing. The pet bottle had actually changed shape. Ridiculously overcarbed in terms of pourability but didn't affect the taste too much. Pushing that aside it's a pretty good beer. Needs a touch more bitterness to balance the abv and perhaps not as hoppy...

    2016 QLD Xmas Case Swap (Tasting Thread)

    I find this a confusing beer. It packs a punch aromatically with strong yeasty Vegemite aromas. It leads on that it's going to be in the imperial stout spectrum but fails in delivering that big malty whack I would be expecting. It smells and tastes much boozier than 6% yet has a delicious and...

    12. Beersuit - Belgian Blonde Classic Belgian pale. Plenty of fruit esters with gentle spice in the background. Alcohol is warming but pleasant. Highly enjoyable.

    21. Peege - Red IPA It has everything that you would want in the style. Plenty on juicy resinous hops. Rich crystal malts. The balance is well played and the flavour lingers well after the beer is gone.
