Only half a dozen bottles of this left now, definitely a good drop for summer. Thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed it.Ciderman said:ImageUploadedByAussie Home Brewer1421708076.919608.jpg

This was one of the standouts of the lotto this far. Brewed perfectly to style. Light citrus notes with big malt profile. Shame I had to share this one...
A 16% ... Phew ... Enough to blow ya sox off :lol:Ciderman said:ImageUploadedByAussie Home Brewer1421707648.347957.jpg
Mead by Barls
16.2% ABV
To be honest I've never tried a mead in my life so it's hard to compare it to anything. The honey flavour was there but not overpowering like I expected. It was pretty sweet but overall I thought it was nicely balanced. It took me a few goes to finish this one!
its a very delicate balance in there. glad you got through itCiderman said:ImageUploadedByAussie Home Brewer1421707648.347957.jpg

its a very different beer to what you would expect. its about a 13% beer but it still needs some ageing as it was designed to last for a long time as its the beer i brewed for my daughters 18th. she is two.Ciderman said:ImageUploadedByAussie Home Brewer1421307965.183050.jpg
Barley Wine by Barls
An absolute beast of a beer. Probably more of an experience than a beer, incredible depth of malt with hops still coming through after being bottled almost a year ago. I have no idea of alcohol but there was no hiding it, I feel like I just drank a bottle of port!
Glad she liked it .. it was one of my first ever beers.. about 2 + years ago.. I have been saving a few bottles for special occasions..pretty sure you got the one that had a bit of honey in it.Judanero said:Grainer Ginger Beer

Golden, fizzy, sweet but not cloying, reminiscent of a "Bunderberg" ginger beer.
Mrs Jud had a taste and said "Oh so you didn't make this one? Why don't you ever make any like this? I like this, you should make one like this."
NB- She has tasted at least three of my gingers and I've never got any praise!

SKB's Australian Pale Ale was just the thing too, a wonderfully refreshing beer. Golden colour with a dense head that persisted. Dry finish.
Had more hop aroma than I was expecting, which isn't a complaint, but was certainly a diff hop variety to the classic POR of the style (according to the AABC style guidelines anyway).
Another really good beer.
