Aussie Brown Dog Ale

Ale - American Brown
All Grain

Brewer's Notes

The Amarillo hops are actually Galaxy. The yeast used was WLP009 Australian Ale. The TF crystal was approx 90 EBC. Mashed for 90 mins at 65-66oc. I believe Australian styles can be based on o/s styles but with an Australian character. This beer scored a 38.7/50 (range 37 to 41) at the Schwartz Brewery Comp this year which was pleasing but also gives it some cred as a beer. In my opinion it is full of flavour but very easy to drink. The IBU seems moe like 45IBU to me. It just came first in the specialty class at the Bathurst NSW Comp, 41/50.

Only 38.5 .. slipping Barry.


Have 100g of Galaxy and POR flowers in stock - this looks a logical recipe to follow. Haven't that yeast though - how you reckon US 05 would go (ignoring the non aussie bit). Better with a propogated Coopers ?
