Whats In The Glass

[Bribie G]

I had a crack at a Cascade Pale Ale (Green Label) that was discussed on the forum.
It was either going to turn out like VB or like Cascade B)

It turned out very much like the latter:

Galaxy malt
a kilo of Chinese Maltose Syrup (as opposed to da wite sugaz )
POR flowers

Danish Lager yeast 13 letting it rise to 18

Ten days at -1

I love this one, I love it.

However there's an interesting side effect which I put down to the maltose syrup perhaps?

Gettin the hang of the new rig, my first pint

Tetleys style smoooootttthhhh pour on nitro mix. Joggled the keg a bit when I was hooking it up and picking up a bit of sediment, should clear by the third or fourth or fifth..........

man that's creamy, it's no wonder this style has taken off in the UK in recent years, it goes down like mother's milk. :icon_drool2:

 

[Shifter]

Wow, that is creamy. Like the old "widget" days.

Has the recipe hit the mark mate?

 

[Tony]

no........ its a damn nice stout but its not Guinness

I think its gunna take a bit of development. not that that will be painful or anything

 

[Adam Howard]

Pale mild with homegrown Chinook and Cascade late. Nice clean nutty malt character with good hop presence. Ripping summer beer.....in the middle of winter! Mad clarity too.

 

[Fourstar]

You know something is wrong when the mikkeller tripel you had is no where near as good as your own saison.

Warra's American Amber Ale

No photo as I am busily smoking some ribs for the State of Origin kickoff.

Needless to say its another tasty brew. Deep golden colour, fine off white head. Herbal, peach on the nose. Full mouthfeel but not cloying. Bitterness comes through to dominate the malt without going over board. More of the same peachy flavour from the late hops. Touch of roasty notes on the back palate teams up well with the hops.

Definitely worth posting the recipe Rob!

PS. Will be hooking into a Green Flash Hop Head Red Ale after this. First time for this well regarded brewery.

 

[warra48]

Seeing as waggastew post his thoughts on my brews, I'll do the same for his:

waggastew's Harvest Ale (I think that's what it is, misplaced my note with the details I was given). Sorry, no piccy, only thought of it as I drained the last of the glass.

Nice colour, shades of gold and copper. Light head on pouring, but it did persist down the glass. I get some subtle fruity aroma overlying the soft malt. Medium bodied, and flavour the same as the aroma. Nicely balanced bitterness, not harsh at all. Nice smooth drinking. Would be easy to have too many of these.

I'm totally wrapped with this blonde. Probably start playing with the mash next time to get a drier finish, but I tells ya, for a beer that's around 8%, it's just to easy going down. Evidenced by the fact it's taken about five minutes to type this.
Belgian's are the ****. Really.

Cheers bulp and Tony. I'm blushing a little.

I need to get with the times and acquire some snifters and tulips though.
That crystal is part of a set. Also a wedding present. And fragile.
Lets face it. It's only a matter of time with me..

First post in this section, have taken plenty of photos of bbers that turned out nice but never get round to sharing. Made this clone of Jamil's Evil Twin for a friends engagement present when they came over for dinner. The photo (if it works) doesn't do it justice, beautiful and clear with a lovely red glow. The aroma is amazing and now 2 weeks after the night is nice and balanced. Shame there is only one or two glasses left in the keg. This is going to be my new house beer for a few a while to come.

Did you use BB pale ale malt?

First time using Wyeast 1469 West Yorkshire too. Yum! Was a hazy sort of morning off the back of tucking into this. The wheat gives it nice lacing all the way down the pint (and the next and..!) Very happy with this one, is a keeper, I got marmalade, others got pear/peach. Good balance, perfect copper colour, nice medium body too. Glad I didn't manage to quoff it all last night. The first of many AIPAs I think.
Glass is a bit dirty but easily clear enough for my tastes, just from 2 weeks of Cold crashing.

Cascade gives that first US-style citrus in the taste but the Columbus and Simcoe come through to give it more complexity/earthiness without going nuts on the tropical fruit thing.
This is more like an ESB with a hint of citrus or something, I'm no hophead, 67 IBU is enough for me.
