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.


I love green bullet...
 
You guys... mmrumph! :lol:

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.

Wey Pils POR all the way! Think I will another... :rolleyes:

L.C.B.A Clone with a Twist...

:icon_cheers: CB
 
Looking great CB but what's the twist?
Nothing much mate, just used Amarillo instead of Saaz as I didnt have any Saaz at the time, nice beer though, dry hopped at 7 days..

Did you get my PM in relation to the Aromatic Malt 5 way split?? Bradsbrew is keen for a 5th..

Amarillo good choice of sub CB! Might try that next time myself.
Yep sorry didn't reply will sort that out now. ;)
 
Hold onto your hat Chappo my boy, here is that ESB recipe you stole/swiped/took freely from the 'What are you brewing II' thread!

All i can say is, awesome! Has aged beautifully, got a big pint of it now! I hope it does well (stylistically) in the Melb brewers comp. Very malty, nutty, bready, crystal sweet on the nose, full malty palate. smooth balanced bitterness. could drink it all day. Serving at cask temps too atm as my lager is having a diacetyl rest in the fermenter! :p

This is my take on a Gose beer of Jena recipe from Mosher's radical brewing. Some say it needs a bit more salt, I say suck it and see. A proud head, clovey phenolics, wheaty tang and spiced with coriander. Mmmmm

Wicked, not very often you see or hear of brewers having a crack at gose, very cool.

I'm going to have a crack at a Kotbusser next.

The recipe for the gose is
