Danster Munich Dry Yeast

Busted my ankle, so doing BIAB on one leg should be fun/interesting/a disaster.

Ready to bottle my Stormy Ale as well. Gotta find the recipe for that, but I tried it and (owing to poor planning) didn't crash chill so very bitter ATM. Will leave in bottles for a while, until drinkable, but the flavour otherwise is fantastic.

Want to use up a large surplus of cascade :icon_drool2:
 
About to decoction mash out the cascade (home-grown) version of my house ale. I still think of it as a golden ale as the colour is similar and the grist % similar to the golden ale with rye instead of wheat and vienna instead of munich.

First time using home-grown cascade, looking forward to it as the smell when picking them was very nice. Have guesstimated 7% for the alpha acids.

Will make the same recipe using home-grown goldings, POR and Victoria. I've made the chinook version twice now and it's such an easy drinking beer.

I grow hops now as well - thanks to boston. Have got victoria tied up to the house, so I will be keen to hear (and to taste) how you go with victoria in your Golden Ale. The way Boston described it, I have high expectations!

Cherry ripe porter.

First brew day with the lady - she's been pretty hands on. Cracked most of the grain, stirred the mash, added the misc ingredients, assisted with recirculation, dug the spent grain into the garden and drank some beer.

Long day though - Just started the boil now.

What is Glacier like? I got the feeling from looking into it earlier in the year that it would be great for a brown ale or stout. When are you next in Perth? We should catch up for a beer.
