Whats In The Glass

[fletcher]

My Chinook and Cascade APA. Extremely hop hazy and a bit over carbed, damn coopers drops.

But smells and tastes awesome. A bit too bitter I think, but that might be the chinook giving it a harshness like Galaxy can? Never used it before so not sure.

I'd say so mate. I made a predominantly Chinook ipa myself and used m44 which I think accentuated it further. lovely and piney but it took a long time to settle down and not as harsh

 

[fletcher]

a re-brew of the first all grain beer i ever made. added some columbus this time round. very happy with it...although sad as my keg blew after this glass

pale
crystal
columbus, cascade, and cascade dry
m44

Was probably the nicest pint out of the keg too, always the way..

Too true, I have two that are about to go, every glass is special as it might be the last, or it might be only half* full


* Between 1 and 100%** And I even shared a couple today, was a heart stopping pour, let me tell you.....

** Or 110% depending on tap warmth, control, and head.....

Found a bottle of a 2yr old robust porter whilst cleaning out the garage yesterday.

A very nice find indeed..

 

[Kingy]

Bullshead saison.

 

[Dan Pratt]

Snow Eater Ale (100% Chinook)

5.1% - Ale 82%, Vienna 15%, Crystal 60L 3%

US05 @ 19c and Chinook dry hopped 4g/L

**** photo by the iphone, but here's my very fresh (only 10 days since brewed) hefeweizen. Didn't aim to rush it but it finished in 3 days and was tasting great so left it for 5 more to clean up and kegged it on Friday.

60% wheat, 40% pils, wyeast 3638 - Bavarian wheat & bittered to 14 with magnum. Simple as but very tasty

 

[Bribie G]

Faux lager on nitro mix.

Without the "spritz" and with that creamy mouthfeel it tastes more like liquid bread. Dangerously easy to smash a few down.

 

[thrillho]

My flat white stout.

78% Marris Otter
7% Chocolate
5% Crystal 60
5% Roast barley
3% Flaked Oats... dunno why, oh well!
2% Carafa II

ALSO! The equivalent of 5% lactose powder as well!

Mash 60 mins 67c

25 IBU of Challenger Hops at 60 mins
Dry-beaned with 5gm/L specialty coffee beans... I used Atomica.

Safale S-04 @ 19 deg

It smells sublime... tastes delicious and looks a treat...the slight creaminess of the lactose and the coffee bean aroma/slight flavour work just so well!

...Until the head disappears within seconds leaving nothing! No lacing, nothing! Could it have something to do with the oils in the coffee beans? What is taking my head? Would love to know haha

Perhaps I'll sub the oats for Carapils next time? Regardless... delish beer that will go down a treat in winter. Perhaps a few months in the bottle will help its cause.

Highly recommend.

Could be the oats as they have some oils in them, whenever I use them I include some Carapils to give extra foaming. I'm doing a stout next, feck dem lagers :beerbang: :beerbang: :beerbang:

Bullshead saison.

Hell yeah !!!

 

[Spiesy]

Glass is a bit frosty, and it's a fresh keg, but I'm really enjoying this Czech Pils. Such a clean flavour profile, with hints of peaches.

Hoping it will clear up as I work my way through the keg.

 

[roastinrich]

Wet hopped Saison

 

[Kumamoto_Ken]

Slight double up, but my first ever beer in sparkling wine bottles (credit to SWMBO for draining them of their original contents).

[droid]

wow some nice looking beers!

APA
bittered with vic secret to 40ibu's dry hopped with waimea from un zud (3.5g/l)
mo, crystal 60, crystal pale, bry-97
4.7%
bit young but acceptable

will use waimea again its quite earthy and bold, its happy to stand alone but something like mosaic might be a nice mix

Hi ,
I think the oil in your coffee beans may have more to do with the poor head than the oats.
I have used oats in stouts at higher % than this and not seen a drop in head retention.

Rgds,

Dad always said teeth were for straining the tea leaves.
Don't think he had hop flowers in minds.
Needing some hop flavour, so having a bit of a Goldings moment.




Cheers,
