What Are You Brewing III

[hefevice]

Maybe rename it the "Ja Knut Kracker"? 3 kids = very brave! Maybe buy a TV?

Heh...especially at my (and SWMBO's) age and given our current travel plans. Number three was a bit of a medical miracle - we made the mistake of believing the doctors advice that we weren't having any more kids. Sorted that during the birth though...which would probably take the name along the lines of "Tube Tier".

Or, speaking for myself, very careless.

Your a good man Bribie. I was going to ask if you got your hands on the 1882 because if you didnt I could give you a vial or some cake but of course you would have.

Cheers Brad

Brad, is the 1882 the Thames Valley? If so I'd really appreciate a sample as I was delaying getting that one till I had a decent order up for Ross (freight cost) and currently up to my neck in Maris Otter, Spec grains, Halcyon etc. so wasn't going to order for a couple of weeks.

I'll do a Breakspear special :beerbang:

Cheers

:lol: :lol: Shawn

 

[braufrau]

I just brewed a hefeweizen today. First brew in months and months.

 

[Bribie G]

shawn, oats in a bitter... interesting. bradsbrew puts enough oats in his stout to keep a Highland croft going over winter but not heard of it in an ale. Are you in BABBs?? wouldn't mind tasting eventually

 

[shawnheiderich]

Yep Oats is a bit unusual I think that it gives the beer a smoother taste, my first pomy style beer in a while though. BABB's sounds good until I think of working early on Friday mornings. Mel has asked me to come along on occasion but I am still worried about the possible consquences next would be a case swap and before you know it I will end up sleeping with an inflatable sheep... (I have seen the pictures). :lol:

I work Friday's. We all work Friday's. Next excuse

Plenty of Babbs members don't go to the case swap. And only Incider really likes the sheep. The rest just humour him
