1x Coopers Lager
1x kit yeast
1x BE2
1x 500gm Stringy Bark Honey


can't really taste the honey, I wanted a strong honey flavour. It's barely even recognizable. :(

I just made one using 1kg honey can just taste it at the end
 
I have another 1KG of honey here, would it be worthwhile doing it all in secondary ? I got bugger all honey flavour from 500gm in primary, well.. you CAN tell there is honey in there, but only after I tell you and you figure out what 'that' taste is. It's very tiny :(

Belgian Pale Ale using Ian Watson's donated 3787 Trappist High Gravity --- Link Thingy --- & my best Belgian Pale yet. Very tasty. :icon_drool2:
Don't ask me how it compares with the usual Wyeast 3787 as this is my first attempt with either of the yeasts.

kegged the wee kolsch today after a few days in secondary on gelatine, didn't think it would clear that 2575 kolsch yeast but as you can see it didn't do too bad :)

malt driven with zero hop aroma but a nice bitterness, still green though.

if you're reading this Andrew, you'll have to come out and run your eye over a few glasses and give us your expert opinion :party:

cheers

Looks great yardy, nice and clear too, sounds good too. Just got back from 10 days holiday on the high seas so I hope there's some left?

My first foray into Liquid Yeasts is now being quaffed:

Penn-9 Yorkshire Bitter - partial with Wyeast West Yorkshire

Rich, luscious, smooth as silk with just a hint of hop bitterness. If it's this good as a partial, can't wait to do the AG version when I do my refit in 12 more sleeps. It will be my first batch.

Could maybe benefit from another week but you know what I'll bring one to BABBS on Thursday along with my toucan stout. :icon_cheers:
 
Just doing some QA of the hefe keg for the QLD swap. :chug:

One on the right is SWMBO's Berry Weizen, she won't let me have any <_<

Can't you steal some? Bring one for the swap? Tell her its not for you...

I will wait until she isn't around and get 1 or 2 bottles from the keg hopefully.

When she asks "what are the bottles you are taking" i will reply "oh, just that IPA you hate" :p
 
in keg now 4 weeks or there about.
the Cascade dry hopping has really mellowed to a very mild Perle Willamette flavour sneaking through a medium body that is unfortunately fading to a finish that isn't as clean as I was aiming for
Still a very quaffable ale
