Apologises Jye... I Really need to have a long hard to look in the mirror mate. Drinking and posting do not mix

Cheers

[Gavo]

Apologies also Jye.

Now to be on topic, no public hol here (ah I do remember having Wed show holiday) but will brew on Saturday, Probably either ESB or a variation of my Casim APA. Either way it's looking like a double.

Cheers
Gavo

Ooh, just read the cosmic psychos are playing tuesday night, this may not happen.....

 

[Bribie G]

Never mind what I'm brewing but what I'm drinking is quite remarkable:

toucan of 2xCoopers Stout
1kg Dex
1kg LDME
Nottingham yeast

A handful of something chucked in at day 6 of fermentation, Styrian Goldings from memory. Anyway I gave Ross and Chappo a bottle of each to take home and sample, and this afternoon cracked one with The Big Burper who lives a couple of blocks away on Bribie Island here, and sipping another one cautiously at the moment (9% ABV) and it's bloody lovely despite only ten days in the bottle. Yesterday Ross suggested I should put it in the State comp as a Russian Imperial Stout. No way, thought I, but after a first taste, I tell you what :icon_drool2:

Thanks for the offer Geoff, but I'll push the tripel back a week and put down a batch of UXB today (since the keg blew dry last nite ).
Happy brewing.

Brewing an American Wheat which I swore I'd never make but after trying Jye's efforts I thought WTF I could use a nice quaffer.
