The rye golden ale is very nice, used a combo of cascade and amarillo and bittered with simcoe. Smooth but with a subtle spiciness and the hops arent OTT. Rye is instead of the wheat so ~18% of the grist.

The pils is different...... i think the vienna is tricking me into thinking it has some sweetness. Finished at 1.010 so should be nice and dry. Lagered for 6 weeks. More carbonation might help? Its ~2-2.2 volumes.

No new camera - just decided that after taking umpteen photos over the last few years in the same spot that closing the door might help with the lighting.

Voila.

Yup, thats how quick i am!

Camera is actually my phone, has an 8MP camera in it.
 
Rye version of my golden ale

A pilsner of sorts. 70% pils, 30% vienna. Kiwi hallertau aroma. WLP833 german bock yeast.

Only made 2 brews with rye now Yardy but i am loving the stuff.

Dont think i will go back to wheat in the golden ale. :eek:

Will be doing a roggenbier this year for sure.

And i drank 3 pints of the pilsner last night so it cant be that bad. :D
 
A pale red ale that is the best, smoothest beer I have made. The head is so fine and streaks right to the bottom of a pint.
Caraaroma gives the colour and most of the malt flavour balanced with cascade hops nicely

Nice looking beer there yardy. Do you filter or just cc for a while?

Here's a pic of my Remembrance Day IPA which is the best IPA I've put down to date (Not surprising as it's also my first ;) )
Those at Bradbrew's brewday a few weeks ago got a sample of this but now that it's been sitting a bit longer it's smoothing out nicely & getting better by the week. Shame there'll be none left by the time it's reached it's peak. :p

A poor choice of glass for a British IPA but who cares?

Just cracked the keg of Weissen i have had on gas for a couple days. I added a couple meters of beer line to the tap im using and will run it at 150KPA instead of the usual 90.

I have had it at 300kpa for 48 hrs and its still not really up to spec. I think my gas bottle is aproaching empty. I will jam more gas into it tonight, and see how it is tomorow arvo. For now its going down just fine. Just needs to be a bit more spritzy. Perfect beer for a stinbking hot sunday.

I took a couple pics and cane decide which is best...... so you get them both :)

cheers

Butters case swap beer. An aussie summer ale :eek: . Goes down an absolute treat. Coopers yeast pitched at the high end and fermented cool giving a subtle pear aroma and flavour. An absolute cracker!

Cheers

ChocCoffee Porter Extract with lots of spec grains. 6.8%

Only 20 days in the bottle and very tasty indeed. Got a few packed away deep in under some other gear to be dug out when I remember.
