a kit v ag argument just isnt the same without drewcarey82....
AGAIN congratulation to you Dan
Be careful there, hooky. To some of our deific beer-gods here you aren't a brewer, merely a "fermenter" . Join us mangy, lowlife "fermenters" and be happy in the knowledge that we don't need to run around justifying our existence by loading crap on those not worthy. I brew AG... I also brew kits. I have made some great versions of beers (and some utter crap) utilising either method. I even assisted in the formulation of several brands of brew kit when I was still working in the industry (I have a test formula for a new kit brewing in the fridge as we speak). I have seen kit-based beers win out in competition over all-grain beer countless times - much to the chagrin of our beloved "superiors". You will always hear the acolades of a champion all-grain beer being spun but, perhaps not so surprisingly, they tend to hush up rather quickly when a kit-based beer takes out BOS. So my thanks to the original poster for being willing to stand tall and risk taking a mash-paddle to the head for daring to point this out to us.... I'm a kit brewer...
For f*&cks sake, Stagger was only congratulating a fellow brewer that managed to score BOS...end of story.
that would be the same as congratulating the company that malted the grain you use wouldnt it.AGAIN congratulation to you Dan
And congratulations to Coopers/Muntons/ESB/whoever made the kits.
Wait till the tide comes inWell done MAH, you caught me too
I'm especially proud of the mighty PoMo I caught, I'm sure it doesn't happen often.

No you're right. He's got the delete button. We haven't.
Warren -
Stretching the argument, one might say that the Nats was extract-biased. The Berlinisch weisse was not allowed to compete, but my Kit/adjunct "Old Ale" competed and scored a Third in the Strong Ales.Who cares, if you make good beer that's what matters.
Personally i get more consistent, better results with AG but whatever floats your boat and works.
BBB wasn't there in the case of BOS at the NSW champs - it was a 3% Berliner Weisse!

Not really, because the kit companies have to thank the maltsters as well

But here we hit a snag ......
Shouldn't we really be thanking those resposible for the grain - but is this the farmer or the plant breeder ?
Has this argument got silly enough yet ?
