Hi all,
I'm looking to make a beer for my sisters wedding to an Australian and I am hoping that I might be able to get some seasoned pro advice from, well, a seasoned pro.
The skinny:
So if anyone has any ideas or suggestions on recipes I'd love to hear them. I'm liking the sound of Galaxy hops for the Australian influence and perhaps Pacific Jade for NZ?
Cheers!
Anita
I'm looking to make a beer for my sisters wedding to an Australian and I am hoping that I might be able to get some seasoned pro advice from, well, a seasoned pro.
The skinny:
- I can only do extract w/ specialty grains at the moment, no all grain and no BIAB as I don't have a big enough pot.
- The wedding is in 6 weeks in Australia, I plan to take 6-12 bottles over for them. I'm not supplying the whole wedding, this is purely just a gift to the happy couple and an excuse for me to play with my new equipment.
- I'm planning to brew 21L and have an option to split the brew in to two for fermentation (got two 12L carboys)... Potential to dry hop one with NZ hops and one with Aussie hops?
- I want to have some sort of "marriage" of Australia and NZ in the beer. This can be achieved as mentioned above, or another way that I don't yet know about.
So if anyone has any ideas or suggestions on recipes I'd love to hear them. I'm liking the sound of Galaxy hops for the Australian influence and perhaps Pacific Jade for NZ?
Cheers!
