Major Inactivity!

[kook]

Hey Guys,

I've been majorly inactive here in the past 2 months or so. I havent brewed in nearly 3 months now.

Had a lot of work and private commitments, but as summer is now approaching I must start dedicating more time to more important things, like beer

I plan to put down at least one brew in the next two weeks, and one a fortnight after that. Keep the stocks up!

Anyone got some interesting style suggestions? Preferably something that can be done extract/specialty, or part mash if needed.

you better hurry along kook that infamous hot perth weather is not far away.that may slow you down a bit.
pale ales seem very popular at the moment going by a few sites.
ive just put down the twoc hbs/bibra lake version of sierra nevada pale ale that i bought when on holidays in perth recently.deebee has also put this one down but slightly varied so will be interesting to compare notes.
