Another Sail and Anchor Home Brewing comp!

"The Australia wide search is on to find a home brewer game enough to clone
brew an old school Sail & Anchor brew, the Seven Seas English Ale. The
recipe vaults open, a gold medal brew log ready and waiting.

Seven Seas Real Ale is a traditional bitter ale that was produced exclusively at
the Sail & Anchor in Fremantle. It incorporates only the finest natural
ingredients and is craft-brewed according to traditional, time-honoured brewing
methods. This gold medal winning real ale is neither filtered nor pasteurised
and so retains the full flavour and complexity of a living ale."
 
Sounds interesting might have a go at this one. Get started early me thinks
 
Might have a crack myself..

Where would I find "tow roast malts" & "Kent Folding hops" though? I assume they are key ingredients.. :unsure:
 
Yeah, seems like there speel chequer was on holeadays B)
 
Have to deliver them to Victoria - can't drop them off to the Sail directly?
Was this the case with the last comp?

Oh, my bad - I only read the bit in bold, not the section above it.

To clarify those rules...

- SUBMISSIONS CLOSE 12TH JULY 2011. This means your bottles must be
delivered to the Sail and Anchor by close of business on this day.

- Non-WA entrants will have a cold storage drop of point in Melbourne, to be
transported to The Sail via cold storage. Details to follow closer to date.

Hi guys,
For anyone who's interested, my winning entry in this comp was finally tapped at the Sail last night. Pretty happy with the resulting beer; a nice easy-drinking bitter, probably the freshest tasting English Pale that I've had. It was a great experience, brewing with Brendan Varis out at Feral. I'd welcome any feedback if anyone gets a chance to try the beer.
 
Hey Tim, I didn't realise that you won! Great work! I'll be making a trip down to freo soon. Any idea how long it's on tap for?
 
Hey mate, cheers!
I'd say it will be on for a while, as we brewed a full batch (1300L from memory). Not sure what the Sail's turnover is like, but it shouldn't run out in any hurry.
Half of the batch was kegged and the other half was cask conditioned, to be put through the Sail's hand pump, definitely grab it on hand pump if you get a chance.

Great work Tim :super:

That sounds like a good excuse to head down to Freo what is it called? Or do they have it labelled as the comp winner?
 
will definently be getting down to try it off the hand pump. hope there will be more brew comps at the Sail this year although Matt does not work there anymore so not sure if they will still be taking place
 
Great work bro!!!

Although I'm in QLD I know that the Sail is the premier craft beer venue in the country and you deserve every recognition.

Bask in the glory, I hope one day to try your beers.
 
Congrats Tim. Will have to make it down for a tasting.
 
Good job again and that article was a good read, when you said "sort of threw my recipe together very haphazardly" I thought hay that's my type of brewing!
 
Congrats Tim,
Looking forward to giving it a try...

or Two :ph34r:
:)
 
Good work brother, I will be down there this Sunday and will have some for sure.
 
Tried it last night. I really liked the malt profile with a well balanced English hop character. Must have it again before I leave. Yes it is great to have a traditional bitter on the hand pump. Well done.
