Hi Brewers,
I have recently started up homebrewing again after...mmmm, along time, so naturally I am going to make mistakes, so to date: I have brewed a rather cheap Geordie lager kit and to be honest I have been struggling with it on completion, the taste is slightly metalic and the morning after is slightly uncomfortable to say the least , very heavy head and serious dehydration and that's only after three pints so its a new one on me.
The other kit, the Coopers Ginger Beer, I know that it is a low percentage beverage on completion but I cant help but think that it lacks body so for me, unfortunately I find myself sitting on the sofa feeling just a bit deflated.
My questions are: what kits should I be looking at for a nice clean Mediterranean lager styled brew and is there a future for Coopers Ginger Beer am I doing something wrong or is there something that I can do to improve the body issues:).
My thanks in advance fellow suppers.. :
