I have a 2010 which they sell for £80. I'll maybe wait until it's ten years old before drinking.
I'm assuming they don't intend to sell the old ones at that price (though they'll obviously take the cash if someone wants to buy it!). I assume listing them online for high prices is a business...
Oh god I made this two years ago and still have half my batch left. My homebrew shop didn’t have Northern Brewer hops so suggested I used Tettnanger instead (hardly matters as it’s hardly a hop led beer) but in my inexperience I didn’t compensate for the fact that it’s got half the AA rating, so...
Hello! I had an 18 month period when I always had something on the go, then real life got in the way (Open University course, if you must know) which took all of my time for a year, now having taken a year off that I’m keen to have another go. I’ve got a load of hops that have been in my freezer...
If you're ever next door in Mallorca, look our for Sullerica. They're based in Soller and do some lovely beers. Not sure how far they go out of the north west of the island though.
I really like mine, definitely something I'll brew again. I'll probably up the dry hopping a bit though. Also mine looks horrible! I'll get a photo when I next open a bottle, but it'll probably be the haziness from the oats and the Vermont yeast I used combined with the darkness from Munich...
Mineââ¬â¢s got more bitterness than I was expecting (finally ready to drink today, and iââ¬â¢m on my third already. Oops!). Itââ¬â¢s murky as hell and doesnââ¬â¢t look very nice. Hopefully thatââ¬â¢ll settle out before the hop character goes.
Iââ¬â¢m still convinced it should...
Caesar Augustus is far from hoppy. I suppose they only call it an IPA/lager hybrid because it's top fermented, and IPA is a term that people understand more (even if, especially in this case, it means nothing).
I donââ¬â¢t mind your ââ¬Åboringââ¬Â ales such as Doom Bar, and I wouldnââ¬â¢t say no to a pint of Fosters if there was nothing else on offer. Carling has a faint whiff of watered down **** as far as Iââ¬â¢m concerned, and despite a phase in my teens I canââ¬â¢t stand Stella...
Glad to hear it! Yours might be at its best in a week maybe? With the amount of hops in this itââ¬â¢s only going to lose the character after carbonation levels are reached. Iââ¬â¢ve not dry hopped mine yet. I was intending to do a second gravity reading tonight but I ended up drinking a...
The Special B isnââ¬â¢t ââ¬Åauthenticââ¬Â, and iââ¬â¢m Not sure what the regular sugar will achieve that the Candi sugar doesnââ¬â¢t do but better. If it were me Iââ¬â¢d up the Candi sugar and scrap the regular sugar. Iââ¬â¢d drop the special B too, but itââ¬â¢s very...
Pleased that youââ¬â¢ve got pineapple even using the US05 Yeast. I tasted my YB Vermont starter before pitching and that was overwhelmingly pineappley so I suspect the finished beer will be overwhelmingly so. Iââ¬â¢m approaching 3 days fermenting and I really want to taste it! Iââ¬â¢ll...
I brewed this today, and added Yeast Bay Vermont Ale Yeast. I had a taste of the ââ¬Åbeerââ¬Â from the yeast starter and it had a delicious pineapple taste. I reached 1.060 in the brew which I was impressed with, since Iââ¬â¢ve started being careful with getting too much gunk into the...
Yeah, iââ¬â¢m looking forward to it. I was tempted by the YB Funktown, which seems to be a blend of Vermont and WLP644 Trois yeast. Maybe for another brew!
