As an embellishment maybe they could record which clones are made via HERMS, 3V or BIAB - a massive battle of the Systems to end all battles

Or a never ending shite fight ............. The brewing system that will be used to brew the winners beer will be a single infusion system so that's some thing to keep in mind.

I'm interested in having a crack at it so waiting for further info. Will be my first comp.

You gonna sell the ingredients for this comp nice and cheap GB?

 

[jbirbeck]

my 'guess at the recipe based on the specs

86% Pale, 13% crystal and 1% roast
Styrian (not ideal bittering but they mention noble...) bitter to 42.5 IBU then 1.5g/l at 5

This sounds like an incredibly interesting idea and a challenge is always good.

Mate as always 'nice and cheap', only problem is I dont know what the ingredients are yet. The only certain I do know is that the yeast will be a dry one. My guess is it will be made with an Aussie Pale malt as a base.

I have just been informed that the Sail & Anchor Iron Brew competition web page will be completed by Monday 6th December. All the required info will be there. This is looking like being a very big event . I will post the link when it becomes available.

Sounds like fun, it will be my first comp! That would be amazing being able to brew a larger batch of your beer and have it on tap!

 

[Bizier]

I am glad I saw this when I did. I will enter it for sure. It forces me to get some repeatable process down after moving west. Good stuff.

Bugger, I thought this post was to clone IRN BRU, used to love that stuff in the UK - it actually outsells Coke in Scotland and is recently well known for its outrageous totally non PC outdoor advertising hoardings :lol:

screw the competition, those are some cool ads!!!

What is this iron brew, some kind of super strong cheap ass lager like Tennent's Super Strong Lager?

(which I still have not tried, growing up in Norway we never really got the English cheap stuff, only the traditional purity law 100% all malt stuff)

I'm in - if interstate entries are allowed.

So this is strictly for the style outlined in 19A of the BJCP style guidelines ? May have to get something done soon so it can age for a while.

1ST PLACE Brews a 40 keg batch in a local brewery, of their IRON BREW clone to go on tap at the Sail and Anchor!

2ND PLACE receives a keg of Sail & Anchor IPA.

3rd PLACE receives $100 cash.



Second place almost seems better than first place to me!

Yeah I be happy with second too, beats emptying mash/lauter tuns. Mind you 1st would give you pretty good bragging rites.

Bjorn, off topic but IRN BRU is a Scottish soft drink that tastes a bit like Creaming Soda
