Whats In The Glass

[fletcher]

Here is my Summer Ale ( aka American Wheat )it was my 100th AG beer.

3.8% Abv - 20Ibu , 60/40 Pils and Wheat, Mashed @ 64c

Simcoe, Citra Centennial in the boil and dry hopped.

Giving the keg to a mate for xmas who introduced me to brewing! (its ok, I've made another batch ) Its crisp and dry with a nice aroma, just needs a little more carbonation.

Fermented with Bry97 @ 19c

looks a bloody ripper mate. i just made a similar one with citra exclusively and damn it was nice. now you've got me wanting to make another

 

[pipsyboy]

Faux lager (Mangrove Jacks kit dry hopped with cascade) partially carbonated and poured through a stout tap on CO2.

Works for me.

 

[CrookedFingers]

Not quite set up for brewing in the new place yet.
Have done a few FWK's
And been happy....
Until this one.
It's a cracker !
The 'new world ale' from grain and grape (no affiliation)
Dry hopped it with a generous handful of magnum.
Almost like a Gage Roads Atomic or Mountain Goat pale

The beer looks good, tastes better. You may just have to trust me on it !

You know we are going to need the rest of that recipe, right?

;-)

Looks delicious

First batch of IPA I've ever brewed, based on the American style. Very nice I must say although could use some tinkering. I'm happy with the malt bill but keen to try different hops in it; this one was brewed with Centennial and Mosaic.

 

[Dan Pratt]

^ ^ IPA are my fav beer. What malt bill did you try?

 

[Rocker1986]

I used 6.5kg MO and 400g medium crystal, batch size was 24 litres in the end.

Nah... I got brown malt AND some other stuff in the shed. All good!

Tips for the festive season brews tho. I've grabbed a couple of cinnamon, nutmeg and star anise spiked bottles from under the house for tomorrow.

Sour mash nelson sauvin saison

Too young really to drink, but too nice not to. Dilemma

 

[Blind Dog]

Looks exactly the same as the last one, but it's the beer Dog would drink, if Dog existed - Amarillo / and 5g /L Huell Melon Saison. Faaarkkkk. Tissue beer

My annual Christmas new world lager. Out on the deck over looking Copacabana beach.

93% pils
5% wheat
2% acidulated

Warrior @ 60
Simcoe/Centennial @ 5

Mashed at 63c/90mins

Fermented with Wlp802 Czech Budjavar Yeast @ 11c

Very clean, mild bitterness at 25ibu. Abv after ferment got to 4.5%

 

[Kumamoto_Ken]

The pic is an oldie but it's the same beer..classic dry stout.

It's a never-ending keg and it's not that I don't like the stout, but I only have two kegs and I really want to get a Cream Ale kegged because rellies are visiting soon and I suspect the Cream Ale won't be as confronting for them as the rest of my brews.

My Boxing Day mission is to crack on and finish the never-ending keg.

Barrel aged RIS finally losing thd overpowering bourbon and now the wood is peeking through a bit, might become the new short black in the house ... better try a long one too

 

[lobedogg]

Two Hearted IPA clone. Keg blew on the next pour. Was at it's best within the first week of kegging.

73% Pale
22% MO
3.5% Crystal
2.5% Acidulated

Adjusted for No Chill so Centennnial @ 25 & 10.
5 g/L dry hop.

After my megaswill idea of home brew for Christmas was a fail this year I am drinking home brew bottled stuff up to 2 years old.

Chilli Beer: Extract brew with a flair. 2 years old. Literally a dried Birdseye Chilli in each bottle. Carb dropped. This has a carbonation of about 4! maybe. Extremely fizzy fruity and a total freak. Like fruity Champagne Beer. It smells so yummy and sweat and its tingly in the mouth with burn!. So sad it was the last bottle.


Cascade Harvest IPA. A 7.5% An English balanced IPA with all home grown fresh picked Cascade Hops. 800g for a 38lt brew. Wet hopped in one of the two kegs. The wet hop version was extremely good. The other keg was good but bitterness level was IBU=45. 15IBU too low IMO.
Still it was excellent. I bottled from keg into pet bottles for 6 months and it was awesome. Now its all gone too. :drinks:
