E.S.B Extra Special Stout
by Glenn @ 29, Jan 2007

 5/5

Brewed this one as per the instructions,used the SA004 supplied, made to 17 litres. Fermented at 18-21 degrees for 7 days. Tasted great after one week in the bottle, and continues to improve. This is a fantastic tasting stout with a tight creamy head that lasts all the way to the end.

Coopers Dark Ale
by GLENN @ 17, Apr 2005

 3/5

nice dark chocolate color and not bad head. brewed with 500g dark and 500gm light dried malt. added 1 teabag golding hops. 2 sachets of the coopers yeast. however really lacks much flavour and body and quite a light tasting beer for a dark ale.grumpys superior brown ale looks the same but far better in body and flavour.
 
Grumpys SUPERIOR BROWN ALE
by GLENN @ 17, Apr 2005

 4/5

dark chocolate in color , great head like the crema of a black expresso coffee which slowly developed after a few months in the bottle.beautiful coffee chocolate flavour coming thru,overall great body and mouthfeel.used it with a coopers real ale from memory, safale yeast which firmly packed in the bottle so poured very cleanly and no yeast dribbled into the glass.

Grumpys SCHULTZHEISS GERMAN LAGER
by GLENN @ 01, Feb 2005

 3/5

I BLAME USING A MORGANS PILSNER WITH THIS,BUT THAT WAS THE HOMEBREWSHOP MANS IDEA CONVICED ME IT WOULD BE BETTER THAN THE COOPERS PILSNER I WAS GOING TO USE.ITS AN OK BREW BUT MISSING SOMETHING, A BIT FLAT AND MISSING CHARACTER, NOT NEARLY AS NICE AS THE STELLA BELGIAN LAGER I DID STRAIGHT AFTER USING THE SAME METHOD USED SAFLAGER YEAST AT 10c foR 2 WKS AND THEN RACKED TO SECONDARY FOR ANOTHER WK BEFORE BOTTLED. AT 8WKS NOT UPTO THE STELLAS WILL DO AGAIN BUT WILL USE GRUMPYS EXTRACT,LIQUID YEAST
