Whats In The Glass

[Fourstar]

Love that colour, time I did that old fav again.
Screwy

Its probably 1 SRM lighter in the flesh. The joys of shooting with a flash in low light situations and no tripod.

I bought some Centennial, not opened yet, I thought they were for bittering, but I see they are best used for flavour and aroma. What major diff from Cascade or Amarillo?

Centennial = Ducks Nuts. As Manticle has noted, they have cascade 'qualities' however i would not call them anything like cascade. Their bitterness is smoooooooth, very fruit tingle like with a long lasting grapefruit/tangerine flavour. They have hint of a seville orange thing going o and best of all when beers made with it age, the hop flavour just seems to blend well with crystal malt profiles. :icon_drool2:

Crap, im only 1/2 way thru my morning coffee and i already want another pint of my Centennial Golden Ale again

My centennial IPA keg blew dry on Sunday during the cricket.

Was an english IPA in style with all centennial. Subtle hop flavour and aroma. Wy1469. The yeast esters (stonefruit) work well with the centennial with is citrusy but not one-dimensional like cascade can be.

Loved it. Prefer it to cascade.

And like Fourstar noted, its ages well. The hops didn't disappear despite the keg lasting 3 months.

Metadata... its a wonderful thing isnt it! Best of all is checking out the apeture and shutter, ISO, Lens combos people have used to get their desired depth of field etc. Having only recently purchased my own DSLR (ahtough have been a capable user of SLR cameras since high school) im trying to find my feet again. Doesnt take long to start pulling out some decent snaps.

Flikr is your friend for awesome amounts of metadata.

Its cool to see how many awesome shots are flying around with entry level DSLR and kit lenses. :icon_chickcheers:

Should have got a D90, Although the d3000 twin lens kit for less than cost price was quite an enjoyable offering.

I got the 450d with twin lens (18-55 IS / 55-250 IS) + memory for $1234 (below jbhifi cost) with a receipt scan from another forum. Pretty good when it was just released.

Pretty much, at the end of the day they're a four door sedan/Great camera

edit: I remember back in the day my D40 with only the 18-55mm lense cost me a grand!

Next photo with 50mm f/1.4

Even better. 200mm f/5.6 1/125 ISO 100. Shallow DOF.

Cantillon Rose I had 2 days ago. SWMBO thinks the label is 'cute' and wants to keep it. Looks like a park bench lap dance to me!

Found a bottle of a dunkel that I made for Christmas day, still perfect despite it being filled from a picnic tap. It's darker than the photo suggests but I love the deep red hue when it's in the light

Altbier (Dussel) enjoying whilst boiling up the club Irish Red, unfortinantly didnt make this beer to Beerfest, yeastbite.

Looks good haysie. My red is about to hit the yeast. A little complex the malt bill is but could be interesting. Besides you can write of the carapils in terms of flavour anyway. its just there to ensure i keep a nice creamy head. Colour might be a little dark but i'll see how she goes!

83% JW Ale
3.5% Dingemanns iscuit malt
