Brewed this for the old man who is not too fond of hoppy IPAs etc and it came out really good. Light but a little bit of flavour and was crystal clear within two weeks.

For the guests - Polite way of saying the uneducated beer drinkers ;) I have a few of them guests too.

I'm always brewing different styles from around the world. Most of which come from here. Cream ales, Rye's, Weizen's and a selection of IPA's and taking them into the office. Its always interesting getting opinions from them B)


Cheers

Hey Gash , i want a brew something light that would also be good for visitors for summer. What do you think is the better recipe - this one or the killer cream ale. Was tossing up between the two recipes. Cheers mate.

I think the cream ale is a more interesting beer and always goes down well with visitors that dont drink craft beer, even though its sort of umm plain its really tasty at the same time.

Hi Gash
A newbi here
Just one question with regards to this brew .
Do you use a Largar yeast or an Ale yeast to get the "largar style ale" ?
Also thanks for all the vids and this site

Regards
Ray

Oops sorry just realised I didnt list the yeast! For this brew I used an ale yeast safale US-05 and it turned out nice. The purpose of this was just to brew an easy drinking summer type beer without having to stuff around with lager yeast and without the whole process taking 6-8 weeks.

I just brewed a similar recipe using a California Lager Yeast, Mangrove Jack M54, it worked well too, its a lager yeast that can be fermented at 18c and I was drinking it after just 4 weeks from brew day.

Cheers!

Brewing a familiar Dark Mild later today. (hint: Was the bastard tired? Or was he run over by a tire (tyre). No one really knows). One thing for sure. It will be a treat when done. Cheers!
