Sampling a test pour of a golden tripple ale that I've had conditioning for the last few weeks.

I was a bit dicey about this brew but feel it's starting to show some good signs of settling nicely in 2 to 3 months time.
 
Trying the linking again (after failing last night).

This is an English IPA in my new pint glass. I picked it up when I was at the Fullers brewery back in Jan, however I had to forward a heap of stuff by sea freight and I only just received the box yesterday. Luckily those pirates didn't get it...

Hi Rukh............ i have one of those glasses also. Got it from evil bay fron the UK....... love it!

Here is my Cluster Bomb Aussie Ale.

I used 100% TF Golden Promise and Aussie Cluster hops.

It is dry and refreshing and the GP malt has lent a fantastic malty sweetness. Hops are well ballanced and i love the flavour and aroma of the cluster. THis is so close to CPA but hoppier.

cheers

PS...... i will put the ricipe in the database...... its very very nice

Dark Ale... Allowed me to try some home-made ingredients and a yeast that probably isn't to style. :lol: Oddly enough it worked well and has allowed me to build a slurry for a currently fermenting dubbel.

Yard - JZ's recipe was the base for this beer. Tweeks included the use of Wyeast 1026 Cask ale yeast (which I accidentaly ran a bit warm) and a small amount of EKG after primary fermentation had finished (partly to compensate for NC'ing and partly to balance out the esters from the warm ferment). Also, I might have used a darker crystal malt.

It has only been in the keg for a week, however I am happy with the results so far.

Tony - You've got a fine taste in glassware. By the way, the only thing that I don't like about it is the indentations around the base as they make it look like the glass has been damaged. Now all I have to do is find a Scotch thistle glass like yours and I'll be happy (for a little while anyway).

Yep She's a lovely malty drop. :beer:

Need to get yourself a stange (Altbier) glass though to do it justice. Will make it most authentic. :D

Warren -

I'm still yet to crack the one you gave rook. May do so tonight.

Tony, I'm getting into Aussies at the moment to find a replacement for my previous Partial lawnmower because I'm finding it so much more rewarding to do AG SMASH Aussies (single malt and single hop, acronym of the month it seems -_- ). So far I've done two BB Pilsener and Superpride brews and was thinking only yesterday about Cluster as that's the hop of XXXX.

I hesitate to ask this, but does the Cluster also remind you of any of the Lion Nathan Brews? Wouldn't mind trying the Cluster. How much and how long did you boil it for?

Kiwi Gold. I was going to call it Kiwi Blonde as it's an ale but the Carared pushed it over the line IMHO

Pilsener Malt, Polenta, Carared, 500g invert sugar. Showcases 2 kiwi hops: Green Bullet and NZ Cascade. US-05. I was going to put a very late addition of BSaaz but that would have nudged it into APA territory.

Ended up with what I was looking for, a grainy but not too full bodied ale allowing the 2 hops to come through. Nice malt finish. Love that carared. Noticeable alcohol heat in the aroma and flavour, prolly drop the sugar.

Putting it in the database shortly.
 
Chappo's Aussie Wice lager.

Drinking well after a day of fencing!

BribieG the Kiwi's looking good!
 
That's what I thought as well :lol: :lol:

'Hon guard.... ching ching ching ching

Chappo, I take it that's just pure BB Pilsener or something? should be how my first lot of Bulimba draught should turn out. Spectacular.
