I'm not having a beer, I'm having four. It's called a tasting and it's classy

Left to right, Brown Ale, Grapefruit Session IPA, Falconers Flight IPA, Case Swap RIS

This was an enjoyable way to spend a Saturday!

McGuinns Brown Ale recipe courtesy of Strathbogie Brewing co - if you're ever at one of the country markets they are at, make sure to try out the beers. Really nice range of different beers I don't normally drink. Also walking around with their beer is the only time I've actually enjoyed being dragged to a market... -.-
 
Last glass from the 1 hour micro-biab (Golden promise and Motueka Smash).

Motueka is quite subtle, nice colour from the GP. No clarifying agents so it's al-naturalll.

Looks great!
Recipe, please?
Here you go - this isn't my recipe though it's one of Zainasheffs, so credit to him.

5.55 Kg MO
450g Munich
450g Light Xtal
227g Dk Xtal
227g Victory
85g Pale Choc

Mashed @ 67deg 1 hour

Recipe calls for 31g Horizon 13%AA @ 60m - I couldn't find this so used Magnum instead
28g each of US Cascade & Cent @ 10m
28g each of US Cascade & Cent @ 0m

My OG was 1066, can't remember FG (forgot to write it down) but came out at about 7%

Next time I do this I might reduce the Dk Xtal a little.

From a few weeks ago a Belhavens 80 Shillings for my Scottish mate , I thought it was a bit bland but has a nice malt balance now , my scottish mate love it and thought it was very close

Golden Galaxy wheat.JPG

Brewmans Golden Galaxy wheat beer , keg nearly gone will brew this again as a great summer ale . When I first kegged this I wasnt really impressed but let it age for a few weeks until a spot was ready, have to say Galaxy and Topaz is a great match together
 
PAle Ale ~ 5g/l Mosaic keg-hopped

I split this beer three ways and did Cascade, Amarillo and Mosaic in each keg @ 5g/l. My fav is the Mosaic.

Droid handed me a small keg of this on my way to Bega over the weekend (I believe the Amarillo dry hop).
Issues.... 6L keg wasn't anywhere near big enough!
6 non brewer standard mega swill drinkers smashed it, I only got one glass. Top brew mate:bigcheers:

This was keg hopped because I split it three ways
There was a lot of hops at 20 (from WP) and then a lot at 0 = 45ibu's in a 1044-1008 beer
Somewhere around 8g/l total but who's counting?

That's a bit f'd up...for you at least...note to self, if MJ is travelling through to a party and I owe him big time, make it a proper keg FFS
