G'day guys anyone tried Smokey Bishop??? Bloody awesome beer!!! Wondering if anyone's got a recipe for it or something similar?

If you PM mikey he might send you his recipe for a dark lager. We call it 'Smokey' after Smokey Bishop however there are differences. It is an absolute ripper of a brew though if you are after a Smokey style lager.

this one tastes like out of the bottles, i recently tasted smokeys on tap up at matsos in june it was heaps darker and had more roastiness. Other variations i have done is with halving the midnight wheat addition and substituting med choc, tastes better but less like smokeys

also i have done it with other german lager strains and other than the time it took to mature it tasted pretty close

hope this helps
