If that is a crayon sketch, they were some expensive crayons placed in the hands of a good artist... Looks delicious.Mr B said:Ok, someone needs to go next, I'll do it, but my photos are crayon sketches next to the above. But the taste, well, that's there.
Red saison. 50l batch, split between 1272 and belle saison. I prefer the saison. Will do another tomorrow, reckon half saison and half Nottingham

don't be bashful or embarrassed about that type of beer mate - unless you actually hate it haha. those types of beers where what a lot of us all started drinking, and i still fancy also from time to time (especially in the heat!). if i had to guess, it is a reschs-ish kinda beer?TheWiggman said:ImageUploadedByAussie Home Brewer1478599167.829814.jpg
Wiggman's Aussie Pilsner *shudder*.
All malt JW pils with a dash of roast barley. PoR for bittering and a hit of Saaz at whirlpool. Whitelabs Mexican Lager yeast for a 1.008 finish. 5 weeks in the keg and it's a drinking beer thank you very much. The perfect balance between malt, hops and flavourlessness. Dangerous on tap, tastes better the more of it I have.
In depth responce cheers 20g it isTheWiggman said:How dare you ask! 20g, puts the slightest bit of roast which comes across more as a grainy malt than a stout-like roast. Also darkens as per rocker.
I say shudder because there's no such thing as an Aussie pils, just like there's no such thing as a session IPA. It's a *******isation of an existing style and it pains me a little to call it that. HOWEVER, it's a pilsner in the sense that it uses pils malt and saaz, and so comes across pils-like without the Euro aroma and grain. It's similar to a Resch's Pilsener but with less presence of what I suspect is PoR. And believe it or not I don't mind the Resch's.
As ideal as it is I would be inclined to try a different yeast. Mexican Lager WLP940 seems to lack any real personality but for something like a Corona that's what you want. I only used it because it was the only one in stock locally. Otherwise, maybe 2124 or 2042 which is always a winner. People tend to diss lagers and might be inclined to think they're all the same (clean, light, crisp etc.) but each has its own style it better suits. A yeast I wouldn't recommend for this is 2001.
I'm getting all keen for summer and I do like brewing - and drinking - lagers, regardless of people's impression of said fizzy horse urine.

Mofox's Rye IPA. Very nice, got a few floaties out of the first couple of glasses but should settle out soon. Nice and sticky. Plenty of Rye, Amarillo Chinook Citra and Simcoe. Yum. Great recipe Mofox
