    Value Of Very Old Unopened Emu Export

    Any idea what a v good condition unopened export stubbie would be worth? It a ring pull top, short squat type of bottle, like the old bundaberg ginger beer type. Someone threw out almost a whole carton, so I scored a few, even tasted a couple, better than the export they make now too.

    Swirling Yeast

    Reading thru other threads, A few ppl have mentioned that they swirl the wort around in the fermenter when its almost finished, to reinvigorate the yeast.

    Pub/brewery Review

    Sail and Anchor pub in freo, on the main drag. Im sure many people in wa have been there, but for those who havent, its sure worth a look. Last beer I had there was a chilli beer, I wouldnt recommend it for someone who cant take the heat, because its not a subtle chilli hit at all. All in all...

    Jovial Monk I think you are wise to suggest that option, as a liquid yeast could be obtained quite cheap witha beer to drink as well. I like the hoegaarden option but from what research I have done, I thought that a different yeast was substituted for bottle conditioning (in hoegrdn case).

    What Can For A Wheat Beer ?

    For a simple good wheat beer, I use esb bavarian wheat 3kg You dont need to add anything else besides the tin and supplied yeast sachet. And perhaps a liquid yeast culture as the others suggest could help, but i havent found it necessary.
