I like redskin's but I'm shaking my head.
Oh well, tell us how it goes.
 
Ummmm....well done?

But why? :)

Cheers
 
I think someone's found a way to get around the alocopop tax. :ph34r:
 
I imagine the sugar in redskin is just as fermentable as any other sugar we put in wort :)
 
"WHY" would be my first question....

interested none the less!!!! :)


What about hops/bitterness??
 
Oh, yeah... there is hops and yeast and water and whirlflock and water drugs

Galena 11%aa 25g, 60minutes
Wilamette 15g, 5 minutes
American Ale yeast

Something makes me think this ones gonna be tart fuel, regarding the lack of bitterness.
Still shaking my head -but why not hey?
 
Ya know, I was drunk when I thought of it, but this has inspired me to dust off the recipe for my 'Mars bar porter'.

..no..


..realy..
 
Wonka Redskins

Ingredients: Glucose (from corn), sugar, hydrogenated vegetable fat, food acid (330), gelatine, flavours, salt, emulsifier (471), colour (122).

Didn't Cortez or someone do a redskin beer on here a while back?

And Milo has been discussed previously, but been knocked back due to the milk powder in it? There's a thread on here somewhere...

From my book on addtives:

"122 Azoribine or Carmoisine - suspected carcinogen, mutagen, skin rashes, odema, and hyperactivity. Banned in Sweden, USA and Norway. Previously banned in Australia"

But hey, the alcohol will probably negate the effect... hopefully.
 
Hey daz, i made redskin vodka once. Was pink, but not very sweet. i dont think we got through it all.

Let us know mate.
