Shhh, don't say it too loud they'll all want one. I mean seriously why do you care about the amount of respect that beer gets? Go to Belgium you'll find plenty of respect there, at reasonable prices as well. Look at the US, some of the best beer in the world at very affordable prices. The wine...

It's an imperial stout but I'm afraid it's a bit out of my league, $600/carton or $100/4 pack if ordered from the brewery. Pity, Moorilla make good beer. Moo Brew Stout

Looks pretty good to me. The treacle is an interesting idea, I use cane sugar to get the ABV up but treacle will have the same effect and add some character. I use Caraaroma (7-8%) and a small amount of roasted barley (1-2%) which equates roughly to your crystal and chocolate. The hops are...

The course notes say: "The course has been designed for brewers wishing to prepare for the IBD General Certificate Examinations, professional brewers wishing to refresh or extend their knowledge of brewing science and processes or those considering entering the brewing industry. A basic...

Just noticed the title of this thread. Should we be prepared for strong language?

I signed up the other day. I wasn't sure how popular it would be and I wanted to make sure I secured a place. Looking forward to it.

Some of the **** he did he did for the US so they obviously thought it wasn't bad **** at that point in time and it just shows how weak the planners can control the effects of their actions. As others have said this isn't a game changer, OBL was at the end of a blind alley.

I've been a BYO subscriber for about 3 or 4 years. It's OK but I think they tend to recycle topics. Inevitable I suppose as there's only so much you can say about craftbrewing. The ads are some of the best bits and the Wizard sometimes has some useful insights. The Aust mag, Beer and Brewer (I...

The American beer scene is so good that, looking at those photos, I wanna just get on a plane and go. Unfortunately I have some commitments here that make that immpossible at the moment. But it's at times like these I have tinge on regret about living in the wide brown land ...

You've misunderstood the meaning of a crucial word.

Yes, they seem to attract a certain personality type, the type that doesn't have the imagination or skill to build something themselves. They have plenty of time for idle criticism though.

Most of us do but recently the forum has become infested with newbies and they're always out to prove themselves.

There are tonnes of hops growing wild around the Scotsdale area in Tasmania. It's a hop growing region so it's nt unexpected. I picked a couple of handfuls just show the old man when I was over. They smelt great. I would suppose they were POR. You could have free POR for life if you brewed and...

It's a pity we have to let f'wits have a voice, but it's a free country I suppose ...

Yes it is too expensive. but hey, that's craft beer in Australia. At least in this particular case you are buying a high quality product, not like some of the dross ...

"Knappstein Larger" ... than what?

Brooklyn Brewery, you're a lucky person.

Yeah but, the wine was made in Australia so no Mexicans there. And beer is generally made under fairly strictly regulated conditions so I don't think cheap manufacturing labour is a factor if it's made in the US or other "Western" country. It probably comes down to volume, competition and cheap...

Where did you earn your B Econ? Not the University of Chicago I'll warrant.
