Eoi/sale - Heather Tips/flowers

[DarkFaerytale]

good to be back

thank you

 

[brettprevans]

all bagged and tagged. smaller order are in ziplock bags and larger orders are resealed the mylar? bags that the heather came in (as per pics below)

very interesting smell, its a combination of being plesent and not plesent. kind of like a hard lavender or how hops can smell atringent but still have nice floral notes. hard to describe. funny the description on the bag says "astringent, mild seditive". so just like hops!


ive measured up the bags and after all of the mucking round its cheaper just to use auspost prepaid satchels (no wonder CB etc just use the satchels).

so revised spreadsheet is attached
View attachment heather_order_spreadhseet.xls

Ill send a PM out shortly with details.
when you make a $ transfer please use your AHB nickname.
make sure you PM me your mailing address.

for those in melbourne, you can either pickup from my place in ringwood or I can bring to work and you can pickup from my workplace which is the top end of the city.

Arrived safe and sound just now. Interesting aroma. Looking forward to trying them out.

Pretty sure I didn't actually pay for express postage - you didn't have to do that. I'll sling you a bottle of something at the grain BB for that.

Cheers.

no worries. you deserve a break

the aroma is growing on me. and see what i mean but pleasant and not pleasant at the same time? cand wait to get it into a few beers.

Yeah, floral vs a little damp or musty smelling to me - but not actually damp or musty or as awful as those words sound. Keen to see how they go.

Mine has just arrived too. Thanks again Cm2, looking forward to brewing something with it next week.

Anyone have any recipe ideas they would like to share?

here or brew up any scotish ale and use it as a late 'hop' addition.

im personally thinking of doing a traditional froach (heatehr ale) an a scottish 80 with heather as a late addition. then 'dry hop' it if not enough flavour

Sounds straightforward enough. Looking forward to giving it a try.
