Cloth Ears Posted July 10, 2016 Posted July 10, 2016 Just finished washing the 76 bottles I'm going to need to bottle my first brew for about 2 years. A lighter (in colour) version of my standard brew based on West Coast and Work Horse yeasts. Seems to be tasting OK from the extracts to measure gravity of the wort, so Im hoping for good things. Had a taste last night. Characteristics between an Imperial IPA and an American barleywine. But as it's only been in the bottle a couple of weeks, it hasn't had a chance to develop carbonation properly, and the elements are not totally integrated (the hops flavour sort of feels a little added on at this stage and the maltiness hasn't been counter-balanced by the CO2 yet). Have high hopes for this by Christmas time. 3
betocool Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 Am loving Guinness's Extra Stout at the moment. How could one not? Meanwhile, my wife organized for another brew, 150 bottles of Honey Sting beer, plus some 50 apple/raspberry cider as well. Good times ahead! 1
The Fez Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) Nice dunkel for winter. Should go nicely with my Hungarian goulash.. Edited July 16, 2016 by The Fez 3
blybo Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 Found memories of discovering this beer at an Aukland pub after my wife's navigation skills had us take a 2 hour detour coming back from up north in the camper van. Overtook a brand new V8 commodore doing about 140 down an empty country road my wife insisted was the main hwy. thought the poor diesel was going to jump thru the floor Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 4
Soundscape Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 Now that looks nice. I really like Monteith Dark Ale and I love a good doppelbock..... where did you find it?

blybo Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 And it is nice Toffee/lightly burnt caramel notes. It's almost like a liquid 70% dark chocolate in a bottle with nice subtle bitterness Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2

Darren69 Posted July 26, 2016 Posted July 26, 2016 High powered lager. I would have picked you for a dark man through the colder months fo sho Lee.
Luc Posted July 26, 2016 Posted July 26, 2016 Bubbly, fresh,light and ...clean.@Darren69 Daz. None of the above matches 'sewer' work. Dark beer do though...so I avoided them today I keep the darker beers for good days, clean days. *I do have a back up just in case though... 2
Darren69 Posted July 26, 2016 Posted July 26, 2016 Pending further sewer toiling, you may also enjoy the Lord Nelson dark ale. Oh yeah.

Darren69 Posted August 3, 2016 Posted August 3, 2016 I had a few White Rabbit Dark Ales last weekend and thought they tasted a bit insipid compared to what I remembered. Unless it was just the mood. Strange.
