I don't think there's any confusion regarding the whole lager and ale thing in Sweden. But then again, the state has monopoly on selling alchohol in stores (except for anything below 2.5-ish%). They all have the exact same layout, with beer divided by... (I hardly buy beer so I might not...

Am I the only one wondering about the "Nordic" part? What makes a banana and strawberry mead... Nordic?

I'd suggest a Scottish Export 80 Shilling, simple, tasty and it'll mature fast.

Freezer for a keezer.

You could do a Maxi BIAB, which if understand it correctly, is BIAB in a smaller vessle with sparging and dilution. Google "Maxi BIAB guide" and you'll find more information.

A rough translation: Many drink beer without additives. Lars Janson, however, does not. What BS are ya talkin' about? I buy real cheap crap beer (he litterally says ugly beer. He uses ugly as a prefix) from the internet and filter it. (he references exactly WHAT it is he's filtering away...

Thankfully it didn't air here in Sweden. But way back we used to have a commercial that made fun of cheap commercial beer. They said you'd have to filter it through a loaf of bread and a dirty sock to make it taste good. http://youtu.be/5NBbfCo3Eus The irony was also that the beer that was...

Sure it's complaining. That's what responsible consumers do - or else they have to constantly deal with companies that ship inferior products. If it's a lie or not depends on your situtation. And I think simply not doing business there anymore is counter productive. They need to know first of...

My Scottish Export 80 Shilling got the 'compliment' that it tasted like Falcon Bayerskt, it's a tastless, German styled lager made by Carlsberg. Granted, it's not as bad as their other beers... but still.

If I had gotten the wrong hops, I'd brew with them (at least if they're similar) - complain that I had to use the shipped hops since I had ordered them for a planned brew day and could not wait any longer. Then demand they send the right ones. It might not be the nice thing, but sometimes you...

"I've had one beer. And one beer. And one beer. And one beer." - Ya gotta work around the rules.

After a long brew day, a friend of mine messaged me and asked what I was up to. Told him I was relaxing after said brew day. The follow up question was how the beer tasted. He thought the beer was done right after the brewing process.

Location: I live in the middle of nowhere, and as if it wasn't annoying enough to have to go to the next town over, it was in a really bad location. Hours: The store I mentioned previously was really bad and went bankrupt, but it had really good hours. Another store is way better on all fronts...

Stovepot BIAB, simple, fast and cheap AG setup. No real need to upgrade anything, just amass free bottles here and there.

Fuggles, hands down.

Didn't someone do a demonstration by drinking it, too?

Which kit? Some more details would be nice.

Is that coffee in champagne glasses? Nah, it's just some chocolate braggot. :P

If you're looking for a pre-made system, I'd recommend: http://www.highgravitybrew.com/productcart/pc/BIAB-Electric-Brewing-System-276p3987.htm - or make something similar at home, if you're handy.

Last hop addition was 10 minutes, and any hop additions are subject to change. I would also be dry hopping, which I didn't add. And claiming that a 45 minute additon will have NO flavor or aroma is... weird. But I'm guessing that was just bad phrasing. While it isn't common with a 45 minute...
