22 @Scotty mack - Belgian something or other? Appearance: Very little head retention. Pretty clear. Really gold colour. Aroma: Esters, belgian I think. Quite a sweet smell (yay complex descriptors). Flavour: Flavour screams belgian ale to me, with that sort of fruitiness, but a bit of spicy...

Note my recipe is slightly different than stated in the recipe, its an all grain recipe and I replaced the roasted malt with chocolate wheat to give it more colour, but not as much roastiness. I assume.

18 @nickxb - barrel aged something amber maybe. Appearance: Dark brown. Almost no head. Not cloudy/murky, quite clear when held up at an angle. Aroma: Huge barrel smell. Not sure of the wood, but its definitely that wood flavour there. Makes me think of some ciders I used to drink, that were...

9 @evoo4u - smoked porter Appearance: Dark black, brownish tan head. Highlights of ruby red when held up to the light around the edges. Aroma: Sweetish smell, mild roast. That mild smokiness that I associate with a ham/bacon, due to being the most common smoked food in my life. Flavour...

3 @madpierre06 - red rye saison Appearance: Murky copperyish but due to the yeastiness of it appears a light brown. Huge head to begin with then coming down to a half centimeter thick persistent head. Aroma: Slight esteryness to it. I'd even say a bit of alcohol smell on the nose. Almost a bit...

Hmm yeah I was wondering if it was BB malt or not. But considering my palate is shit, I thought I'd guess "oh it tastes like domestic/BB malt" and it'd turn out "actually its Himalayan smoked malt".

6 @crowmanz - wild tasmania saison. Appearance: Solid gold colour. Decent head, that sticks around for several minutes but then has faded to a 0.5 cm persistent ring. Moderate haze, but partially bright. I suspect it would drop clear. Aroma: Clean smell, with a malty something. Quite pleasant...

Hmm I got coopers, not sure of the quality of em. Any issues with using them?

Shit better check on the crowmanz ale then... lest I clean wild saison off the carpet.

Its the yeast. Without finings I am having crystal clear beer come out of the fermenter. This thing just drops like a sack of spuds.
