Have to disappoint. Found the cable, opened photobucket, opened a new bottle of relevant beer and took some shit photos of my beer in the studio, only to find that I can't upload them as I'm using a borrowed work computer and can't install the required software to take JPEGs off my phone (no admin privileges).

In a couple of weeks I should have a new PC so I'll add to the thread properly then (ie beer description with pics)
 
Currently drinking my toucan Stout...only two months old, but its bloody good...
My old man who is an avid Guinness drinker (his glasses), reckons its the bees knees.

Have 12 tallies in storage till next St Paddy's day, but the rest is almost all gone. Going to do the exact same recipe again next week.

Seriously JUST carbed bitter. Had a brewhouse infection, and after i got rid of it, i brewed an american wheat and a koelsh. Both very nice, but im a bitter man. The first whiff of this gorgeous yummy malty aroma put a huge smile on my face!!. Luckily, i have a second batch fermenting now. I love bitters!!!!!!. Yes, its cloudy and needs to clear up, but im so happy to have a bitter back on tap. Will put a few away tonight i think!
 
I think I have finally cracked the perfect Pilsner, I've been on this tangent for a few years.

There's no where for anything to hide in this beer, I'm happy this was number one on my new brewery.

Good work, I thought you had some bananas in there somewhere :p
Looks great (and the beers not bad either)

My jaw just about dropped when I saw this pic. I now have to go and get a new monitor for my computer - just broke this one instinctively reaching for the glass! :)

Is the recipe up anywhere Bribie?
 
Lovely looking beer Batz (shame about the focus)

;)

My 3rd attempt at DSGA, my first attempt at a full size batch with the urn. Can't believe the clarity of this beer! (1st attempt had bad chill haze, 2nd attempt I stuffed up and tipped out) I used koppafloc, whirlpooling, gelatine and cold in making it. It has only been bottled for 4 days, I hope it will carb up a bit more, but I'm really stoked that I made such a quality beer from scratch. It Smells great. It tastes great. It looks amazing. Just needs a little more carbonation. Did I mention how happy I am? :)
 
Tonight's beers come compliments of Warra, my local HB associate. Nothing like drinking someone else's well made HB to make you think its about time to start saving up for an AG setup. First up a Stout:

6154933529_ed9a08406f.jpg


Brewed sometime last year......

Appearance - Black impregnable colour, Stephen Hawking would no doubt have an equation to explain why no light escapes this! Fluffy coffee coloured head with excellent retention.

Aroma - Roasty but not over the top.

Taste - Subtle roasty acidity and nice carb prickle up front, slight caramel hints on the mid palate but finishes dry. Mouthfeel is balanced, not cloying or thin. Tobacco ash and chocolate notes are left on the palate.

Overall - Lovely dry stout that is a great example of 'balance'. A highly drinkable stout that is neither heavy nor thin. Well done Warra
