Too damm easy to drink :icon_drunk:

Hey winkle did you go crazy with the dry hops? Sampled a bottle of it myself (courtesy of the devious one). The dry hopped character is what sold me (or rather blew me away).

Top of my summer "to-do" list. :)

I was a bit of a wuss, only 10gm and I lose a bit of the late addition since I no-chill. Still bloody nice and a real sessional (think I drank about 4litres last night) but I'll up the dry hop to 20gm next one :icon_cheers:

Its probable a lot for the premium sub style but is common for the American lager style. There is a pic back in post 488 and I quite like it as a thirst quencher... very dry, crisp and tasteless... perfect :p
 
Grolsch clone, a tiny bit darker and not quite enough aroma hops.
Very quaffable though.
Bad phone cam pic.

Is there hop aroma in Grolsch :huh:

Beer looks good though

Kabooby ;)
 
Yeah, this beer has absolutely zip aroma, and very little flavour, bittering is good, so may just back the bittering addition back a bit increase 30min addition (double) and add 1/2 as much more 10 min addition, would be a bit closer.
 
Just a muntons yorkshire bitter can with a bit of crystal and choc grain and with two fuggles plugs and a handful of oak chips chucked into the secondary. Got a bit of bite to her :D .

Something a bit different today...pics of old and VERY new.

First off, my '05 Belgian Chocolate Ale.
Aged very well; holds a perfect head, velvet-like texture and excellent flavour packed full of dried fruit.

The second...well it doesn't look like much*, but it tastes a treat.
This is a combination of the last 200ml of the Lowenbrau I was drinking whilst bottling an all-Challenger IPA, combined with the dregs of the beer itself. Fantastically hoppy, besides the odd chunk. :p

*Note the inch thick layer of hops on the bottom of the glass!
 
It was wednesday night. I hate having to get up while i watch NSW kick arse in the State of Origin so its a tradition for me to pour one of these each half.

not the best pic ofthe beer. I will try and take a better one tomorrow and post it.

bloody nice though. All weyermann pils with about 5% carahell. Hallertau hops for a 45 min bittering addition and a bit at the end.

clean, crisp, bitter and malty at the same time. very nice.

cheers
