Hi Eddie, Glad it all went well, looks good, That's 2 virginal AG brewers losing there cherry in one swoop. I'm planning a porter for AG2, just got to convince the wife it was worth it. ;)
Lets hope they both come out ok.

Well done Eddie :thumb: Nice pics and a good looking brewday, Now into the darkside further young jedi
 
Great stuff! Theres nothing quite like drinking your own beer made from scratch, apart from your friends and family saying they love it!

Only problem now is you will never enjoy supermarket beer again! :cheers:
 
I was bitten last October and my third brew day was finished yesterday :D .

I too went for a stout on number 2 and did a guiness clone which has been in the bottle a week but tasted lovely as I was bottling it :rofl:

Best advice from my first is to save some because it really improves over time :drink:
