Whats In The Glass

[NickB]

Spending a hard day completely cleaning the house, and hunting the little ******* mouse that's been eating my food!

Must be time for a pint of Lite Rice Lager



Going down a treat, especially with TripleJ pumping on the stereo, and a beautiful, sunny day outside (pity about the wind!)

Cheers!

Nice Nick, what I wouldn't give for one right now.

[bum]

Thanks, Peter. Looking good. That's the columbus, centennial and simcoe, right? How's she drinking?

 

[NickB]

Thanks Andrew, cracker of a recipe.

Subbed Saaz in this batch as I had no Hersbrucker left. Tasting bloody beautiful atm, although I have a feeling this may be the last pint left in the keg Only one way to find out, I suppose!

Cheers

Nick,

If it's from the same recipe as the one tasted at your last brewday then it's an excellent beer. :icon_drool2:
As for the mouse, a kilo of rat bait scattered on top of an opened grain sack should do the trick but please don't enter any swaps for at least 12 months. :lol:

PS --- See from your last post the hops in this one differ but it should still be a cracker. :icon_cheers:

Not too windy down here, but still some hours of work left to do before I can crack open the fermentor and force keg the Wit.

BTW Nick, Talon is the bait to get according to Perry, makes the ba$tards thirsty and they **** off out of the house to find something to drink.

 

[TidalPete]

It's bad manners to ignore your elders Nick. :angry:
Besides, it's all in the spirit of fun so lighten up a little.

Thanks Pete, but you've spoilt my little surprise for the QABC tasters.... h34r:

Blonde Ale. I know it's not to style, but I chucked a whack of rice in...loving it. My Japanese maple has joined the Cascade for Spring too.

Rice is stepping up to the plate as The Grain That God Brews With :icon_drunk:

<diatribe>

Lets give credit where credit is due - the driving force behind microbreweries and craft beer definitely came from the USA. Even in the UK with the rise of CAMRA, commercial micros are a 90s and 2000 thing but the Yanks are a decade ahead at least. And in Australia we are sort of riding on the Yanks' coat tails. But what were they reacting against in the first place? The likes of Bud and Coors with 60% rice or maize, so "all malt" was the mantra. Despite the fact that the high use of adjuncts in American brewing for the last 100 years was a "given" with six row malt, to produce clear light lagers. It's just that the commercials, following Prohibition, went OTT in the search for profits and rationalisation, as most of their competition had fallen by the wayside during the Prohibition years.

Now that things have settled down somewhat and everyone has had a cold shower it's great to see craft brewing expanding back into grains that would have been anathema to the original all malt and nothing else craft movement of the 70s and 80s. Rye, maize, rice, wheat, etc. are being re-explored - not as a cheap filler (even from woolies my Polenta is twice what I can get base malt for from Rosscoe) but as an interesting foray into valid styles.

Love my ricez :icon_cheers:

Bribie, I'm just loving it. After trying your fake rice lager recipe, I am on the rice bandwagon. The mouthfeel is fantatsic. And polenta is next on my list...
Cheers mate, John.

Just finished brewing a ESB and the Minister-for-saying-no said "no" to going to the Platform bar .
I'll show her - a few 8.5% Galactic Imperiums should do the trick.

Hmmm, sticky malty resinous passionfruit alcobomb :drinks: .

the Minister-for-saying-no said "no" to going to the Platform bar .

My minister of no fun also said no .

Sounds like you both need a change in government! :icon_cheers:

Yeah ... so did mine.

So this trick of yours, do you feed the Minister with Galactic Imperiums (which sounds superb BTW) and then sneak out ... or are they just substitutes for Platform action?

A few glasses = carefactor zero, and loud music commences.
I'll get there next week anyway.

Moving away from the dangerous ABV beer and on to a saison stout.

Too strong for a dry stout, too thin for a oatmeal stout, not big enough to be a RIS, so I guess its a strong stout but quite dry and dangerously drinkable.
Going down a treat with a sharp vintage cheese and homemade pickled onions :icon_drool2: .
