Love the descriptive terms used on this site.

Hey all,

On reccomendations from my HBS I have brewed up a Blackrock IPA, to which I added 300 grams of Leatherwood honey. As you know this is a Tasmania honey, and suprisingly enough I have what I consider to be a very good Grolsch clone. I would definately reccomend it to anyone.

Cracked a few ...

Sorry, but this has got to be one of the stupidist ideas I have ever heard of. Another ploy for breweries to market there product to "new age" losers.

Beer is good, because it tastes like and is beer, not because youv'e added caffeine or guarana (or any other type of stimulant).

More reason if you ...

Hi gents,

just try another Hoegaarden which what I was aiming for.

As metioned wheat yeast (Safwheat), coriander and german hops are the key here. Thanks for this. What sort of qauntities would I be looking at?

Hi All,

I am looking for a "rock solid" wheat beer recipe. A mate of mine brewed up the Coopers wheat beer kit, which in my opinion tasted OK, but had a very rtten egg type of smell to it.

I was thinking of using Olivers No. 11 Maaswheat recipe as a base. Here is what I am looking for. A few days ...

They have:

-Imperial Voyage PAle Ale
-Chocolate Mahogany Porter
-Golden Harvest Lager
-Spicy Ghost Draught.

I know Cellar Plus in Melbourne have the entire range.

Not yet, was looking at it in the supermarket and wondering what it would be like.

I might give it a try anyway, I assume this is an ale?
Will update how I go with this, as I am waiting for my Coopers Pale Ale to finish before I start anything else.

Don't know why VB isn't on this list. It barely even tastes like beer.

If I had a choice betwwen drinking VB, and getting beaten around the head with a brick. I would at least have the common sense to ask you use a good quality house brick!

Hi Geoff & Oliver, props to you guys for a great website and forum.

Franky,

the stick on thermometer is good. Problem is it can be very inacurate too.
If you go to your local Dick Smith store you can pickup a digital thermometer for about $30. I have mine stuck on the wall near my fermenter ...
