Qld Xmas in July in June2014 case swap * tasting thread *

[Aydos]

7) Liam's rauchbier dunkle.

Deliciously smoky but not over the top. I'm not getting much dunkle but **** it, I really like it anyway!

Great job! Got the recipe...

 

[Liam_snorkel]

Ha cheers man, will post the recipe when I get in front of the computer. By memory it's pretty much the smoked malt, wey dark wheat, and some carafa. Let down a bit by WB-06, will throw 3068 at it next time.

 

[Liam_snorkel]

3) Benken25 - Raunchybier

Yeah baby. This is nice. Malty & smooth smoked bacon flavour, not as ridiculous as a schlenkerla which makes it kind if morish, I could probably have a few of these in a row. Really clean and delicious as it warms up

 

[angus_grant]

@Liam: Be prepared for an epic ferment with 3068!!!
Don't know if you could scavenge the dregs out of my bottle.

 

[Liam_snorkel]

Too late m8 I drank it mit hefe

 

[angus_grant]

Yeh, figured that would be the case. I've 2 bottles left and could try and keep the yeast from them. You need to build or up through a few starters though. Prob easier to buy a new packet.

 

[Donske]

My dark mild is ready to drink.

I sampled Tazman's stout last night, it was very moorish, wish I hadn't split the bottle.

Sorry, posted from phone this morning.

 

[Beersuit]

18. Good hop aroma up front. Dry and very well balanced bitterness. Good job Warwick. I could drink this beer all night.

 

[bradsbrew]

Looks like #6 Robv red iipa is not ready. Poured flat for a 100ml, so I have just put the carb cap on the bottle. The small sample tastes great.

 

[bradsbrew]

#18. Aussie Pale Ale. Well balanced beer, lychee and grapefruit backed up by a steady malt backbone. Could enjoy a good session on this.

Just got news from Rob. He doesn't have enough service to get online he said he only bottled the weekend before the swap.

 

[Beersuit]

He also said he was having fun.
