Sounds like Whyalla is a hotspot for illegal bars. Maybe I'm missing out on a potential second revenue stream?

My understanding is that the side swap is made up from those in the back up list. For those in the main swap who can/want to swap more than 24 bottles then they can be in the side swap as well. So if you are in the main list you would need 24 bottles plus how ever many are in the side swap...

You could put your name in the back up list for the autumn swap - http://www.aussiehomebrewer.com/forum/inde...showarticle=152

Your inconsistency would be nice and consistent though

Raven's Janet's Brown Colour is a lightish amber - maybe a bit too light for a brown? Aroma for me is dominated by banana esters with some sweet malt in there somewhere - maybe some hops hiding behind the esters. The hop character wasn't as big as I was expecting. I haven't brewed the original...

My first galaxy experience was in Byron last year where I had the draught on tap and loved it. More recently I have had it in the bottle twice, one some what oxidised and had lost all hop aroma/flavour, the other was nice but not how I remembered it fresh from the tap in Byron. That is my only...

I believe so...

I have a feeling I may have put it in the case when I drove back to Whyalla, oops. Mystery solved. Was it the columbus?

Coopers Sparkling should be a must. Perhaps something with galaxy - maybe the bridge rd galaxy ipa - haven't tried it yet though Redoak Belgian Choc Stout Not JS golden ale

I meant to keep the bottle cap and take a photo of it to post here. Not to sure how I ended up with it.

Wasn't an experimentale was it hatchy?

From tastings last night with legham so from memory Awesome Fury's Chilli Amber Poured nice amber, fairly clear small head. Not much hop aroma or in the flavour - malt forward beer. Very hard to pick up the chili - if I didn't know it was in there I don't think I would pick it up but could...

Brewbot's Nelson Sauvin Summer Ale Very clear, pale straw - great colour - low to medium carbonation - small head. Definitely pick up the winey nels sauv hops in the aroma and up front on the palette backed up by a sweet, honey-like maltiness. Very tasty. I enjoyed this a lot, cheers...

Been in the bottle now for 3 weeks. To try and squeeze this into my brew schedule I had brew without my usual ferment temp control. I can enter it if people want to taste a beer fermented way too warm but I think we all know what that tastes like. I have a couple of bottles in Adelaide, I will...

Mine is in the bottle and not tasting very nice - don't think I will be entering it.

Gopha's Simarillo Ale Med-high carbonation, good head. Slight haze which went after a little warming. Nice pale copper colour. I get a what I think is a little yeastiness(?) on the nose but lots of hops too. Flavour I get amarillo goodness with malt in the background. Finish is dry good...

Wow, this thread went OT quickly. I have had the same thought too, ferment stir plate would be great for those really flocculant yeasts you need to rouse back into suspension. Though not being great at all things electronic I have not entertained the idea of building something myself. Would...

RKs Smoked Schwarzbier Med-high carbonation, solid head that lasts the whole glass. Hard to tell but seems hazy - not that I care to much about clarity. Aroma is all smoke for me - love it. Smokiness carries through with malt in the background. Good mouth feel/body. Excellent level of...

I get deliveries from slowbeer.com.au, purviscellars.com.au and adelaidebiershop.com.au Purvis cellars have a slicker website, slowbeer caters just for beer geeks :) and adelaide bier shop because it is kind of local. Don't know if there is a Sydney based shop. My current first choice is slowbeer.

Storing beer at higher temps will increase the rate of several oxidation reactions that occur in the the bottle. This can lead to the formation of acetaldehyde and fatty acids which can impart metallic and/or grain astringency or cheesy stale flavours. Beers that have higher levels of reduced...
