Belma Saison.

Made with a new american hop called Belma.

Has a fine and subtle orange like citrus character. Very smooth and suits this style with the fruity Farm House Ale yeast well.

I love Saison :)

Fat yak clone. Been doing a bit of research trying to clone this beer. Had some off tap in Newtown and it was wonderfully aromatic and hoppy. Bottled versions were never as good. So I thought I'd start with the fatter yak in the recipe db and tweek from there. This recipe is just as I remember the draught version even though colour and ibu are above what Matilda bay specify. Regardless top beer. Credit to (on my phone and will edit post later)
No filter, no gelatin etc. 2 days at 3 deg
Cheers

The correct way to start a long weekend.
A 6% Belgian Pale. Been in the bottle 9 months.
Pils, Munich, Special B, bittered to 29, Leuven yeast.
Yum.
Going to my head already!

My latest scharzbier and very nice indeed, first beer I've had after three days of rain, 525mm landed on our place. We are flooded in and have a lot of road damage, also a lot of erosion on our place. Nothing four months of work will not fix, unless it rains again. :huh:
It would be nice if we had power again as well that's been out 15 hours.

My first go at a Saison.
80% Pils
5% Wheat
15% Rye
Yeast 3711
Needs a bit more carbonation

I recognise that view! I even recognise the post that's holding the glass.

Argons' Little Fellas Pale Ale.
This is the last one as the keg just blew.
The looks fantastic, very clear and bright.
Why is the last one out of the keg always the best?
 
Awesome looking beers here everyone, here's my latest one, 'Cocoa Porter'.

Wesmalle tripel clone. Couldn't get much closer if you ask me. Only took me 3 goes, they were double batches too! :eek:

What was the final recipe Bribie.
 
My latest Hefeweizen.

Brewed the day after Boxing Day, with Beerisyummy assisting.

Didn't taste brilliant at one week, but now, three weeks post bottling, it's come into its own, and I'm enjoying it. Finally I managed to brew a Hefeweizen without excessive clove.
I don't necessarily subscribe to the theory that Hefeweizens should be drunk young and as soon as possible. I've drunk some of mine at up to 6 months post bottling, and they drop brilliantly clear in that time, like a Kristalweizen. They taste just fine at that stage. I've also drunk a Dunkelweizenbock at almost 2 years post bottling, and it was still good and smooth as you'd want it.

Half full (I am not a half empty kind of guy) on the left and full to the right. If we go from left to right, as is our custom in Australia, then Praise be to Allah! It would appear to be a glass that refills itself!

Looks the goods. Got a recipe? 3 x double batches of Tripel sounds like a bit of a plastering :drinks:
 
Had a few Galaxian Pale Ales with DKS.

Not bad, so it continues......
 
That won't end well, Perry.... ;)


My consumption has been kept to a couple of glasses of Hef Leopard this evening, as I am again working at Robina in the morning, and as such, a 4am wakeup awaits as it did this morning....

Bah, double time and the chance of rain again (and in that case, triple time) are the only factors pushing me, gently, toward bed shortly.....


Zzzzzzx

Don't things change Nickster? Although a humble fitter I got triple time on Sundays plus whatever it was for wet weather. Quadruple time was confined to State elections (Saturdays). OoohhhhhI how I miss those buggers! :p
Are you correcting all those lift outrages I see on Translink Info or are you doing the actual line repair? Just interested. PM me if you're shy.

Just to stay on-topic ----- Really like the look of that beer Winkle. Much better than the dud I'm consuming before replacing it with something better & no, being a tight-arse I haven't considered chucking it. :p
Tell Daz 'Thanks for replying to my PM'. I appreciate it.
 
No Pete, I'm doing the very reputable task of rebuilding all the tower lights at the Robina Stabling Yard. At least all the towers are now hinged, which means attaching a rope and dropping them down, rebuilding the guts, and putting new lamps in. Much, much nicer than trying to do that off a 10m (thats 30ft for you, Pete!) extension ladder.....


;)
 
:icon_offtopic:
Thanks for clearing that up Nick.

Similar hinges to those light towers could be channelled into doing the work involved in Squire's 'Stairway to the Stars' MT. The most excellent gravity setup I've come across as yet
Not giving you ideas, Heaven forbid :ph34r: but adding a pump & HEX would be a piece of piss to you with the added advantage of being able to fly-sparge if you want?
With a new house & lots of room, etc I can supply you with all the hinges you will need (toot-toot!). Just ask!

And once again, just to keep on-topic here's my latest Golden Ale + a pic of Stairway to the Stars with MT being emptied (I'm sure Brucie won't mind).

Luckly sleep required me to retire early - watch out for gunfighting in the shopping centre down there :ph34r:
 
Are commercial brews allowed here? Currently drinking a Hitachino Nest Red Rice Ale - best beer new beer I've had in a while - strawberries!!
