Hey winkle, I eventually picked up the mini case swap beers from DKS yesterday and ended up with two bottles of beer labelled arsehole Saison and thought WTF :blink: - now I know who they are from. Will crack one right the noo. :beer:

 

[Bribie G]

OOhhh that's unusual, I don't usually like sour or smoked beers, but this hits some sort of cider drinkin' nerve - as soon as I sniffed it and tasted it, 5-corner fruit (star fruit) came instantly - stepdaughter grows tonnes of the buggers so I eat them often. What yeast?

edit: just checked up on acerola, obviously shares some fruit esters with star fruit.

edit edit: yup just saw the yeast in your OP. Onto my third glass, you don't often hear BribieG swear but this stuff is ******* interesting :super:

edit edit edit: 7% taht expains i t

I hope you have a blanket or heat pad for the 3711, mines very sleepy and this cold spell is not helping. Sound like a beautiful brew though. Mines in the shed though, keep it in the house and you might be right.

 

[winkle]

It'll be in the house, with a heat belt for back-up. The case swap batch using that yeast is doing ok there :icon_cheers:

My first kit in close to two years. I've been meaning to set myself the challenge of making a kit taste good for a long time. As I brewed more and started adding better ingredients, I was also learning more about better processes so it will be good to see if my processes can make a good kit. Being very short on time and having not brewed for 3 weeks I decided today was the day-

1 tin coopers real ale
100g choc malt
100g med crystal
50g carafa II
50g roast barley

20g EKG for 30 minutes
Ringwood slurry from my case swap batch (not the whole cake).
