Be very interested in this result. Basic grain bill, but interesting hopping and yeast.

 

[kirem]

well, if you are both very good boys, I'll send you one in the post.

 

[Screwtop]

I will, I promise :icon_cheers:

 

[bconnery]

Not a brewing post as such but tonight I kegged my Hazelnut Brown tonight. Very strong hazelnut smell and taste early on...

Then decided it was time and put the fruit in my two lambics.

1.5kgs Figs in one.
1.5kg Mixed berries in another. Raspberries, blackberries, wild blueberries, redcurrants and blackcurrants...

Samples have been nice so far so looking forward to these...

Not in secondary as such. In the end of primary...
For as long as seems right...

I love sour beers, and I decided that the figs I had left would be something different...

Been following your brewing projects on this thread Ben and was beginning to think you had lost your MoJo mate. Glad to see this is not the case :icon_cheers:

Is it possible one of these might be ready by swap time.

10% caraaroma??. You're keen!!. Have you done that before? I did one years ago with a fair whack of caraaroma, and wow, was it cloyingly sweet.

Keen to hear how it turns out.

I know you get a little worried when I brew something "normal" screwy, but don't stress.
The lambics will be a pretty much permanent project now, and a sour orange is never that far away...
Got a freezer full of frozen berries too

I put down a simple lager today.

I did the same brew about 2 months ago and am drinking it now - it's a nice easy drinking beer that makes a refreshing change from all the APAs and darker ales I've been doing the last few months..

This one will be in the keg until my Oktoberfest BBQ so should smooth out nicely in that time.

I've done this previously with Wyeast 2124 and prefer the Danish Lager yeast as it helps the hops stand out a bit more.

Undershot my target OG by 4 points (think due to mash out temp being off by a few degrees) but other than that everything went smoothly.
