    Changes To Reinheitsgebot?

    It may be legal but that doesn't mean to say that it will sell. Lets hope those discerning Germans will vote with their feet.

    James Squire Beers - Doomed?

    I think this is fairly common in commercial breweries? Running multiple yeasts in their sized scale equipment is not as easy as tipping in a litre of yeast. They need very large quantities of the stuff and pump it around so have to add extra storage tanks and piping. This all costs money. And we...

    Minimum Time To Brew And Drink

    I always find wheat beers are remarkably drinkable after only a few weeks in the bottle. Nice summer drop too.

    Newcastle Brown Ale Recipe Needed

    They make a "normal" batch size - not sure what the exact figure is off the top of my head but around 20 - 23L would be right. The reason why it seems like a double kit is because you don't add a kilo of sugar or whatever - just the bigger can.

    Beer Sales In America Are Declining

    I thought the problem wasn't with people switching to wine but to the RTDs like cans of bourbon and coke or west coast cooler. It is sweet stuff and gets you drunk - designed for kids. Edit - found this link with frightening info on the rise of RTDs here

    There were two nuns driving home in a car. Suddenly a vampire jumped in front of the car! "Quick! Show him your cross!" said the first nun. "F#ck off Dracula" she said.

    Rag And Famish

    Went by again today and popped in. The bar is back as before but with new pumps. I only had a quick squizz but doesn't look any different? The old carpet is gone and at the moment it is a bare floor. They are pulling pints so hopefully this is just a minor hiccup.

    Rag And Famish

    Sad news for North Sydney drinkers? Drove past there the other day and the place looked gutted. Tha bar was ripped out and guys were working everywhere. Tell me the last real pub is not being turned into another faceless yuppie clone bar. Anyone got any news?

    Safale Yeast - Did It Go Low Enough?

    I got around that FG many times with S-04 and kits/extract brews. Infact I never got it down below 1010 whatever the recipe. That particular yeast is so flocculant if often drops out and prematurely ends fermentation. Next time you could try rousing it up with a stir and leaving it an extra few...

    Nebuchadnezza Bottles

    Completely useless bit of info I found Googling In any case, a 1.5-meter-tall sherry bottle was blown in Staffordshire, England, in 1958. It holds about 26 gallons or a little over 6 1/2 Nebuchadnezzars. They decided to call it an Adelaide. Twenty six gallons of wine would weigh around 220...
