Okay, so I know that I could pop this thread in the main forum and let everyone have a crack, but I thought I would put this to my Merri brothers and sisters in brew as you're all a fine bunch of sods. Plus, getting to follow all this up face to face is a big plus.
If you've the time, I would love people's thoughts on a recipe I've concocted through Beersmith. A buddy of mine has just had a kid (although his wife did all the heavy lifting) and I want to brew him a special beer to mark the occasion. He's Kiwi, she's Aussie, so I've selected the hops accordingly. The first addition of DME is to get the boil gravity to 1.040.
My big question is, would this taste any good?
Any thoughts would be appreciated...
