Just sussed the recipe and have learned a thing or two: Vienna is the malt I confused as Munich and there are no noble hops in this but there is still a really clean and pleasant hop taste there - are Millennium hops German?

27. Wardhog's Vienna Lager Great clarity and deep amber colour bordering on bronze. Small head, medium carbonation (maybe my glass?). Slight honeyed aroma with barely perceivable noble hop. The flavour is all about the malt- Munich being the dominant and the honeyish character is still there...

Chris Taylor made one of the best Baltic porters I've ever tasted commercial or otherwise. It won best of show at the 2007 Vic Brew and inspired me to make contact with him. I'll alert him to this post and see if he is feeling generous with him thoughts on brewing the style well.

Speaking of fruit salad, I got watermelon as one of the fruit flavours going on, particularly as it warmed. What hop do you feel might be responsible for that one Fourstar?? I really liked it alot and now feel inspired to try some American hops I may not have considered using before trying...

How many bottles are we to include? I count 26 from the post earlier by Fents. Is this correct? Bottling Thursday night and need to know whether I fill two-kegs or one is all, guys :unsure:

An Australian pale ale with some Carahelle and wheat malt. Very estery (banana) and satisfyingly bitter :icon_cheers:

Your lawn needs a mow Jayse. What have you been doing with your time?! ;)

My Kolsch has decided it wants to ferment out further, probably because I let it 'go to sleep' by allowing it to touch thirteen-degrees at one point. It should at least not be sweet like I feared it was going to end up when I racked and Polyclared it last Friday.

Sure hope you guys like sweet beer... Just racked my Kolsch with Polyclar and it's 1.014 still so going to give it a couple of days to come down a point or two before the big chill. I plan to counter-pressure fill the bottles and it should be a real quaffing styled beer (one of the first to be...

Recipe: Croylsch Brewer: Ian's Brewhouse Asst Brewer: Style: Kolsch TYPE: All Grain Taste: (35.0) Wort tasted boring - light amber already and cloudy but not much flavour malt or hop-wise. Starter tasted fruity n nice though. Recipe Specifications -------------------------- Batch Size: 49.00 L...

My experience with Wyeast 2035 American lager was not good. It throws a lot of diacetyl and DOES taste kind of woody which makes a very weird lager (I tried it out of desparation on a Classic American Pilsener). I felt like apologizing to the case swap guys that copped a bottle each... (a...

Brewed a mildish Kolsch Friday and pitched the starter yesterday arvo - going nicely at 16-degrees. When do we start posting recipes, guys?

I'd be in for at least one bag, probably two...

I was a t the BBC in Melbourne and they took my credit card as some wierd sort of insurance because I wanted my Duvel served in their Duvel glass. Aparently, a lot of them "go missing" but it's not good enough to not be offered the choice of the proper glass if they have them even if it does...

The 6th is better for me - not able to do the 27th, but what will be will be.

Very nice gear for your first all grain!!! How did the beer turn out? Jealous of your wicked fermenter... :icon_chickcheers:

This is a hybrid beer using 100% Maris Otter mashed low and full of NZ Saaz "D" styled like an American IPA pitched with Wyeast 1056. It is big and bitter at 6.8% and much paler than the photo shows (taken at night).
