Hmmm hops
by LX - Email Reviewer
@ 20, Apr 2005 |
|
|
This was my first masterbrew.I made this
with a can of coopers draught and the
yeast that came with the tin. I racked,
cold conditioned and bulk primed. After
2 months in the bottle it is now a crisp
drinking ale with plenty of hopps.
Would be a perfect beer to wash down the
dust after a hot day in the sun.
I will be making this one again for
sure.
(I would like to try this with a lager
yeast and see how it would turn out.)

Good Beer

Made the DHPA to 23 litres with
rehaydrated safale - fermed at 18 deg
for 1 week primary, 1 week secondary and
started drinking it after 4 weeks in the
bottle. Rough specs OG 1046 FG 1008.
This beer is a crisp clean drop -
didn't find the hops too overpowering
at all. I bottle primed but imagine it
would be even better if it were cold
conditioned and kegged. Very satisfying
brew to make - you will not be
disappointed with the result.

A sharp edge to an Australian Pale Ale
by Voosher - Email Reviewer

This is an Aussie Pale Ale, so step
right up and compare it to the best
popular Australian Pale Ale, the Green
masterpiece from Coopers. If you like
the Coopers, it gives you something to
think about. Hops. It has them in
magnificent abundance. Early, they are
almost overpowering, and best left to
hopheads. Give it about 6 weeks in the
bottle, and you've got an Aussie Pale
Ale with a balance of sweetness and
bitterness. Choose a good yeast.
Recultured Coopers is a good start. Then
liquid. Mmmm.

DHPA

Made to 20 ltrs with safale yeast as
supplied. Hydrated yeast and pitched at
24C. Went off madly for 5 days at a
constant 22C. Can't get much colder in
Alice during summer. Racked and left in
second ferm for another 5 days. Kegged
and quick charged. I really liked the
extra body and flavour from making with
20ltr. My only complaint is that my
stomach couldn't handle the extra hops.
Had heart burn that would wake the dead.

Made to specifications with safale dry
yeast (2x sachets in 300mL of luke warm
water with a tsp of malt from the
masterbrew pack) and Grumpy's medium
bitterness pale malt extract (1.7 kg).
Fermentation took off very promptly
(within 3 hrs) but forgot to take OG!
Fermentation completed within five days,
but left till 7th to rack and CC. FG
was 1014. CC for 5 days, then bulk
primed (160g caster sugar) and bottled
19 litres on 9/1/05. Still immature at
this time, but tasting very promising!
