Melbourne - Grain Bulk Buy June 09

[manticle]

I sampled something that was very hoppy (very fresh, grassy type of hoppy that made me burp a touch too). I assume it's the same brew.

I like hops a bit more integrated myself but I was still pretty impressed with the brew rig and the shop in general (first time I've been in).

Yep well done chaps and good to meet you. What a highly efficient show.

BTW Did anybody sample the Randled Galaxy beer? My god I'm still burpin' hops. :blink:

Warren -

Yep well done Maple & all for the leg work on this.

Warren - I only had a snifter of said beer, and when I was about half way home and when I thought the flavour had finally left the palate, burp oh there its again!! Quite enjoyed the beer, it was my first taste of galaxy and anything 'randled'. I think I'll be working on both in the future

A big thanks to Maple for a well organised day.

Shame I couldn't hang around today to watch the demo and sample the beer

Happy brewing...

Andy

it was an american APA hpped with NS, cascade and weillemette, then randelled with galexy. awsome stuff.

grain issue is all worked out with Don Mataeo. He's picking it up from my joint tomorrow.

Good to see all you blokes today and cheers again to Maple for organising it.

Well done Maple and thanks,

Good to have a beer (never tasted galaxy to my knowledge so the randall beer was great for me) with Wayne, John, Savlo, Paul and a couple of others.

We called into Bridge Rd Brewery in Beechworth on the way home for a beer or two and one of the best pizzas I've ever had.

The place was humming with the usual snow crowd either on their way up for the week or on their way home.

Interesting to see a table in a micro with four women, 30-35 years old, a full beer taster platter in front of each of them and smiles on their faces.

Every day should be like this.

Cheers,
smudge

What a great day! so many litres of beer to be produced from all that grain.

A big thanks to John, Chris, Nick and Sam for hosting and supplying the goods, and to CM2 for all the help.

With only one major stuff up, i think we can call this a successful day. Thanks guys.

Maple.

This ones a bit bigger

 

[brettprevans]

Dave's got a copuple more of when there was more grain. he'll post them eventually i assume.

 

[manticle]

Did you tell me 250,000 L of beer (approx)?

 

[brettprevans]

i beleive that was the figure G&G were telling us @ 1050 OG. It may have been 25,000L though.

its about 5000kg of grain. probably 25k rather than 250k

 

[T.D.]

I heard it was a pretty spectacular sight with a row of pallets lined up! Keen to see more pics for sure.
