Another faux lager. 100% pils malt bittered to 30 IBU with hallertau and fermented with Notto. I can't seem to keep up with demand for this one. The masses are just gobbling it up.
What yeast are you using ?

Yep just realised you even said it on your post , clearly had a few tok many when I read your post. I am going to give it a go nice and simple. Only difference is I will probably hop several times to get to 30IBU, go for 20IBU at 60 and then some additions at 20,10 and 1
 
Just tasted my first ever home brew using 1469, I have only ever brewed with good ol' US-05.

1469 is, well.......Different.

well us-05 is a very clean, flavour neutral american ale yeast, and 1469 is a nutty, estery, english ale yeast. completely different, hence the difference taste notes.
 
put down a simple cider a few nights ago, just because.

80% apple juice
17% pear juice
2% lipton tea
1% lemon juice
s-04 at 16C
1.040

hoping it will stop higher than 1.008ish, don't mind if it doesn't.

Make sure you give it time to drop bright.
My favourite uk yeast.

Yeh I fermented for 2weeks and cc'd for a month :huh: (I obviously didnt plan it this way, but my shed and brew gear was out of action so it sat in a temp controlled freezer for that long).

Its a massive BANG of how I cant explain. Im not real good at matching foods and tastes on the palete, when people say stone fruit I say, yeh I suppose, but I very rarely eat stonefruit, so :huh: .
I fermented at 18-19*c so know after a little reading I realise is probably a couple degree's to high.
 
But either way it's drinkable. When its fully carbed i'll see how its going.
 
Got two brews fermenting and one in cubes.

Got a Stout that I don't have the recipe for, should be good though. OG of 1.080.

A Rogue Hazlenut Brown Nectar clone we found on Beersmith.

Sample tasted awesome. Ended up a little under volume and 8 points over.

And the last one that is collaboration effort of a Facebook home brew group that we're all brewing separately and then contributing a cube and fermenting in a red wine barrel.

Red wine barrel fermented Porter.
