Don't you love it.

This is Batch #5. I've just looked at my logs and to my suprise, its a LME Kit 1.8kg leave the sugar out and brew as a 2.5 gallon brew. I added an ounce of fuggle hops and.....suprise suprise, I did it in a MR. Beer Barrel and straight to bottle from primary (No racking bucket or any thing)

WOW it's wonderful.

Looks spectacular! But...I move that orfy's posts be time delayed by 5 hours to US EST! Seriously, how am I now supposed to sit here and watch the clock for another two or three hours??

LOL, it's the same for me but I read your post either early am or when I get up.

I have one more chilled then I have 3 shop boughts to compare.

I like the magazine opened with the "Lagering" article read to read.

Wallmart (Adsa)

gotta say, i like your choice of beer!!!! it cost me 60 euros(about $75) for a case of duvel last year. they have international bazaars here every year and i go straight to the beer guy! got 3 types of chamey(did i spell that right?) there too!

 

[Orfy]

They bought out one of our local retailers. It's still called Asda but it's owned by wallmart.

Some of the stuff I will not buy, e.g. Jeans at £3 a pair, in a price war with the leading chain.
Now £1 or so difference on the price of jeans means nothing to me but it does to the poor labourers in the chinese sweat shops.
Sorry enough politics, I have beer to drink!

p.s. I appologise for any poor posts in around 30 minutes....I'll of drank 3/4 of the line up by then.

keep your eye open for viable yeast in the sierra. I've had two of the big bottles in the last month that had a wad of yeast at the bottom the size of your pinky fingertip.

And the Duvel almost assuredly has a yeast cake.

 

[Orfy]

Nothing in the Sn.

Duvel, nothing.

But there again it has been shipped 3000 miles plus in god knows what conditions. It's very cloudy but no chunks or sediment.

To tell you the truth it's a nice ale but it tastes some what like my west coast pale ale 2 weekis in to conditioning, just a little smoother. The same yeasty CO2 bite, same colour and body.
