Thanks, came in handy being there for a quick search. Will report back when I get round to brewing it.

Re: INTRODUCING: Seymour Citra Dark
Hope it turns out well. Big fan of citra, but some other hops would add extra dimensions. Maybe better or worse.

Re: INTRODUCING: Seymour Citra Dark
I'm bowing out. It's a bit far off the original recipe to call it seymores citra. Moved it to brewday, thanks for comment ebarn.
Re: INTRODUCING: Seymour Citra Dark
It's a lovely beer. I brewed a batch that I drank this summer. It's pretty bonkers, it's not subtle but it is tasty!
Re: INTRODUCING: Seymour Citra Dark
Brewed this today and hit target no problem. Once it is well and truly done I may let it condition in the keg a few weeks and then rack into a keg with the dry hops (loose).
Re: INTRODUCING: Seymour Citra Dark
I dry hopped in the FV for about 8/9 days and kegged this at the weekend. Took a small sample tonight. Very very nice
Got some friends over for homemade pizza and this on tap over the weekend. Should go down well.

Wish I’d kept mine away from friends, you’ll find they drink it quick! EnjoyRhodesy wrote:I dry hopped in the FV for about 8/9 days and kegged this at the weekend. Took a small sample tonight. Very very nice

Re: INTRODUCING: Seymour Citra Dark
haha yeah, to be fair I want them to sample something good and maybe out of the comfort zone for some of them. I have a load of Citra left as bought in bulk so already planning another monster with it.

Yikes, are you able to stand?!
Re: INTRODUCING: Seymour Citra Dark
haha all good
Re: INTRODUCING: Seymour Citra Dark
Well I’ve just rebrewed this glorious beer again. It was a tough experience as I though I had shifted the flu I have had all week, turns out I was not as well as I thought, I am wrecked now! That said I hit every number bang on and have 23l of glorious black gold in the FV
Anyone who’s not had a crack at this beer should as it’s wonderful stuff. Looking forward to this being ready, used Tyneside yeast from brewlabs for this batch, interesting to see what that does for it, it’s a nice yeast.
