Whats In The Glass

[winkle]

When you said that using dark wheats added another level of complexity to a Dunkelweizen you were right on the money Tony. :icon_cheers:

My first Dark Wheat DunkelWeizen that included Weyermann Dark Wheat Malt, Weyermann Carawheat, & Weyermann Chocolate Wheat with 3068 Weihenstephan yeast.

Will definitely be doing this one again. :icon_drool2:

My latest LCBA clone has pils, carapils, dark Wheat ans carahell in it. Its Awsome!

Love the dark wheat........... it can do no wrong.

I have a pack od 3068 in the fridge and going to do a 70% dark wheat, 30% pils weizen to have on tap.

Should be nice.

I like to call it munich Wheat.

:super: looks great mate.

Thanks for that Tony :icon_cheers: Had to try out some dark wheat after your little effort.
Just sitting here at the computer after a hard-fought Broncos win over the Cows. What a great two sides (Which is hardly surprising seeing they both come from Queensland) :beerbang:

Anyway, am just sipping on my latest BPA whilst I wait for Benny's Dragons to (Hopefully) self-destruct.

Still 25 rounds to go Tony.
This season starter between the Broncos & the Cowboys at Lang Park is always a great game. There was bugger-all between them so you were just unlucky mate.
Serves you right for not having Qld time. :lol:

[Tony]

Dragons to self destruct.......... storm win

 

[winkle]

Visiting teams should remember that Lang Park was once a cemetary
C U tomorrow about mid-mash Pete

 

[TidalPete]

Dragons to self destruct.......... storm win

I won't spoil your game this time Tony but at 55 minutes you can smile. But it ain't over 'til it's over.

All this footy stuff is a little :icon_offtopic: .

Hey fourstar - I'm close to kegging a jamil caramel APA, but with Perle/cascade (easier to get) instead of his hop combination. Is that close to what you have brewed?
My samples are quite bitter at the moment, but that should smooth out i imagine. Can sense the malt character though under the subtle hoppy flavours.

Hey foles,

If you went:
Perle (60 Min)
Cascade (10 Min)
Cascade (Flameout)

You will probably find the bitterness may not be as smooth as mine as Horizon are a notoriously good hop to use for a big IBU hit with a very mellow smooth bitterness. Comparing that to hop examples like Perle, NB'er, chinook you may find the bittering additon of perle to be allot sharper. Either way if it ferments out well (1.012-13~) it should be quite crisp and dry with those hops.

I wouldn't worry, it will be awesome. I also find my bitterness slowly creeps up as it gets warmer in the glass. See what its like once its in the glass. Would be interested in seeling what yours turned out like. (picture).

Cheers! :icon_cheers:

Was dying for a beer when i got home, had a sample of my (cream ale turned) rice lager yesterday, tasted quite 'winey' very sauv blanc and i didnt have any nelson sauvin additions either!

Today is a different story, nice grainy pils aroma with a subtle nuance of noble hop aroma. 21 days in the keg. Slightly medium to full and bready mouthfeel and holds a good head, this is around 10 mins out of the kegn and i haven't even put my lips on her in this pic yet. I was worried yesterday, thinking i might have had an infection h34r: Awesome today.. i should have went with my instincts and lagered her for a few months..... Being a lager newb, anyone know what would give it winey phenols/esters?!?!

Cheers :beerbang:

 

[bulp]

My not so lawnworthy Hefeweizen and Screwys (its not a fucken irish red) Irish Red



Needed a couple of tantilizing beers today considering my fuckhole of a workplace decided i needed to stay at work just long enough to miss out on the beer expo in Melbourne, sorry for the swearing i hope my boss doesn't read this, i have just got him into brewing.

 

[cliffo]

The first lager/pilsner I've done in quite a while that I'm actually happy with.



Only 4 days in the keg and already tasting like a winner...very happy with this one!

I too have been working on pilsners for a couple of years cliffo.
The last few have been my best and I've found that munich is best left out of pilsners,my opinion anyway.

Looks a very nice beer there btw
