IIPA, 3.5 months old and fantastic.

11% ABV, 120 IBU (calculated but probably not quite)

Hops....... wow..... hops.

malty, slight sweetness, smooth alcahol warmth.

head you can eat with a spoon, and tastes like eating ..... hops

the perfect beer to be drinking on a warm winters afternoon when im suposed to be at work h34r:

cheers

hi, it looks a great foam, and do you use any special tricks to create a foam like it.?

cheers, alan

Finally, my Zwickel Pilsener, possibly one of the best beers I've made to date, typical dry North German Pilsener, Magnum bitterness - just right and Sazz aroma with a nice crisp dry finish, the Swiss Lager yeast from Craftbrewer was just right for this beer. Nice tight thick white head that lasts, a great beer. Thanks Zwickel, wish I could shout you one in return for the recipe, maybe next time you are in Oz. Having a lager night Sunday, the family will all be here, we have some good imported Pils to taste side by side with the Zwickel Pils of course.

Definitely Impressed:

Now that looks and sounds like the Pils I want :super:
Wouldn't have a bottle to spare Screwy? I would love to try this one.


Batz

Since the keg freezer is up and running i seem to be taking far more photos of things ..... hmmm..... a little excitable perhaps?? ..... this one is my Strawberry Blonde, basically a Coopers Canadian Blonde kit fermented with BE2 and 600 grms frozen whole strawberries. As most of you know the Blonde kit is pretty bland in the flavour stakes so the strawberries give it a bit of a fruity after taste... quite nice even if I do say so myself

Funny you should ask this.

I dont do anything different, i just mash it firment it, bottle it and hook in

Today i got some bottles from my granny garage full of an English Old Ale thats about 1 1/2 years old

Chilled one to about 10 deg and poured it.

I went downsatairs and came back 10 min later to find this...... the coolest looking head formation on earth. It looks like a little volcano or a big nipple

It has that.... long term storage, carb thing happening where its not so much over carbed and doesnt gush but holds a fantastic head.

HAs a great caramel aged aroma to it too. Very nice.

cheers

Nice refreshing Kolsch . Thanks Tony for posting the recipe. This is the 1st beer I have made that my wife enjoys :super: .
Cheers

my cookie brown ale, containing cinnamon and vanilla, inspired by the one in radical brewing. I was really disappointed with this when I first kegged it, but in a week it's gone for very average to quite a nice drop. will have to make an effort to not drink it too quickly to see if it continues improving at this rate

Will have to bottle from the keg Batz which doesn't always work well for carbing. Let me know when your going to be down this end of the coast, call in and I'll tip some into you. Or will get a botle to you somehow.

Think the recipe was posted previously, search for Zwickel Pilsener, be sure to follow the mash schedule.

 

[bonj]

Met up with Bonj on his hunter adventure this arvo.

Gave him a bottle of IIPA to try and one to drop off to scott and keith at potters.

HE passed me a bottle of "whitbier STYLE" beer as he put it

mate its tops..... as you can see, it poured wonderfully and smelt of perfume and lollies at first, very plesant, made me smile when i sniffed it.

had a good slurp or 2 and the coriander seeds are there for sure. I LOOOOOOOOOVE corriander seeds. Hate the plant, love the seeds B)

he told me he overdid the orange peel but the coriander is dominant to me.

a bloody great beer mate, and nice to meet you breifly today.

cheers

Thanks for the review mate! I personally thought the coriander was dominant also... others have disagreed. That's the beauty of tasting it yourself!

I could go a glass of that right now, but when I got in a few hours ago, the beer fridge was sitting at 19deg... seems a cat has swung off the power cord to the fridgemate some time in the last week, and unplugged the chest freezer. Will probably take the better part of a week to get back into balance... :lol:

At least my sense of taste is back. I drank the last roady of the wit with rellies in Taree on Friday night. Apart from my navigational woes coming out of Newcastle, it was a pretty smooth trip back north. Somehow I managed to lose the Pacific Highway in Ballina this morning... good thing I recognised the road... "Hang-on!" I thought.... "This is the road to Byron Bay... I need the road to Tweed Heads" so I caught that one without causing too much back tracking or extra driving... hehe

Glad you enjoyed the beer.

First up a CAP using jasmine rice.
I was aiming for the colour (looks darker here) but could have been filtered.

Then a hefe-weizen, but since I'd used K-97 yeast and B-Saaz hops as bittering and flavouring (very nice citrus taste/aroma) maybe it's a wit

Hey, good stuff Winkle... Jasmine rice has always had me curious. Can you notice any contribution to the flavour/aroma from using it?

Warren -

I can't notice any jasmine in it but the rice gives a sharpness to the flavour and dryness in general compared to using corn.
