Does it differ much from Black Sabbath? I have the grain in hand for it but don't want two kegs full of a v.similar beer at the same time.

He's a bad man ( @Dads_Ale )! I loved it so much I went online and ordered the full extract kit and the cut down version (add your own Marris Otter). Delivered today. That's my Xmas house beer sorted :-)
I only do AG but will also be buying this again, The use of extract seemed to really suit this style.
I am just finishing a pint of Black IPA.

What is the ag version?
Both very dark and roasty but Rasta has a big hop flavour while Sabbath has a strong peppery yeast flavour.

Lemon wheat beer (Coopers wheat beer kit with better yeast and added lemon zest)
Making the most of unemployment, I went and had tea at Wetherspoons tonight. Had a pint of Butcombe Chinook, which was disappointing. How not to use Chinook hops. Some would call it balanced, I'd say insipid. Actually managed to disguise Chinook hops, which takes some doing.
HOWEVER!!! I then had a pint of Rooster's Nectar, a pale ale with Nelson Sauvin and Riwaka hops. As soon as I saw the word Riwaka I got all over excited. What a fantastic hop, I so wish you could buy it! I had to have another. I could very happily have finished the barrel and slept under a bench in Wetherspoons. I also had a pint of Strathaven Festival Ale, which was incredibly just as good. Columbus, Cascade, First Gold and Mount Hood hops. It was bloody lovely. Staggered home wondering if unemployment is going to ruin me. The outlook is worrying. :lol:

If you ever do find a source for riwaka hops I've got the perfect name for the beer you'd make - Clibit's Ruin :lol:
I really hope I do find some Riwaka, but then again. :drunk: :evil: :pray: ...
I've even considered heretic regression in order to get a Riwaka fix!

With a mini mash, obviously...
Seeing as you are talking hops,in ten minutes I'm mixing up a Wherry,now before you start,I have no grains,liquid malt extract,dried malt extract ,wheat,barley,flaked oats or any cereal,just a Wherry,500g of dextrose and the following hops.
150g of Falconers flight
50g of Citra
80g of Nelson Sauvin
Any ideas if any of these would go with this?

You have good taste in hops. I think Citra suit certain things, and this is not one of them, IMO. I'd use one of the other two. But I'd boil some of the Nelson i think, not just dry hop. Or you could just dry hop with the FF.
