I agree that an export version would be more extreme. Also, you'll note that I decided not to go for any Brett, which was one of the things mentioned in your first post.

I put lots of gypsum in this one. Those numbers are for a 10L batch.

Check out the links above. But like I said, my first batch isn't ready yet. For my next attempt I will lower the FG, and set the OG based on a higher than expected attenuation.

This is a project that I just started to work on. My first batch isn't ready yet, but I already know that my recipe needs to be reworked. http://www.headcutterbeer.com/first-attempt-white-label-ale/ http://www.headcutterbeer.com/white-label-ale/

Bump

Picked up some Green Bullet hopes and wondering what to do with them. Thinking about making an APA and using GB and Cascade at a 2:1 ratio. Anyone tried combining these hops?

Thanks everyone. Looks like I will be busy.

Hi all, Planning a trip to Portland. Looking for advice on the best places to drink local beers. Thanks!

First, Unibroue is Canadian (not sure if that matters to you). Second, I believe it was bought by Saporro.

Smashbomb.

So nobody?

That's what I plan on doing. Just wondering if anybody has gone the 20% route.

I note that Briess also makes black barley which is 500L.

Yeah it kinda does. I used 14.4% and the beer wasn't really black and not nearly roasty enough. Also used some carapils and special roast.

Made a stout with Briess roast barley and wasn't overly pleased with the result. This is partly my own fault because I didn't use enough (it's only 300L). To get a good roasty flavor I think I might need to run the % up to 20% or more. Has anybody done this and liked the results?

Anybody out there growing hops in or around PEC, ON? If so, any tips on which varieties grow best in the area? Cheers.

I do this. It is the ultimate budget way to get the effect. It was developed by Guinness - google search "initiator" if you're interested.

No reason at all to limit yourself to hops from one country. I don't know why anyone would suggest otherwise. As for NZ Hops, I tried Riwaka hops and didn't like them. I'm hoping to try some others in the future.

Oh yeah, there are some good beers around - just not enough of them!

I think the US makes great beer - certainly ahead of us in Canada. The "bigger is better" thing is getting a bit tedious though.
