On Friday I was at a loose end, so I decided to put the brew on.

I received some hops from Malt Miller and decided to use some of them up.

Sounds delicious. The beer looks pretty dark in the pictures, but I can't figure where the colour came from given those ingredients. Is it just an optical illusion, you think?

[ArmChair]

I think it must be, I will get a sample out of the fv tomorrow and take a picture.

It's the same grain bill I used in my AG#1 and that was really light coloured

Interested in finding out how this will taste as I have some NZ Pacifica from MaltMiller too. (and Pacific Gem and Jade).

From the the advice I received on my NZ Pale recipe thread it looks like less is more for NZ hops, you don't need to add large quantities.... and no 150g 10 day dry hopping!

Finished at 1010
Giving me an abb of 4.2%

Looking forward to finding out how this one tastes

Oh no that's awful! I feel for you, nothing worse than loosing precious beer

[seymour]

So, how's it drinking?

[ArmChair]

Need to put some in the fridge to chill, doesn't save alot of bottles because of the spill.
Might get the keg in the bar over the weekend
