Jim's Beer Kit

That’s just how I remember it….
Wife’s uncle described it has fighting beer….
Once inside it fights to get out yer rear end.
Think it was around 4.5% if correct so it had a bit of oomph to it…

Bet we’ll never be able to recreate that distinctive sulphur smell that it had.
Was also a great laxative…

Though you were going AG Wales??

Might be a decorative hop that doesn't flower??

There was footage from the old Wards brewery online at one time but cant seem to find it nowadays??

Great post, thx.. Love to see old brewery footage. Was looking at this one from Adnams which was quite interesting, especially at the end when the reporter was asking the old guys how many beers a day do they sink.. Most said 3-4.. Nice one!!! https://player.bfi.org.uk/free/film/watch-how-beer-is-br...

Think I'll give it a miss with regards to the scavenging of a strain.

Helped a guy out to polish off a 5L keg of Doom Bar yesterday and I noticed the last pint after tilting upside down had some clumps of yeast in it..
Does anyone know if this is primary strain or a basic kegging yeast??

Alcohol free beer???

Good to see it’s going to be drinkable....
I’d wollop it of quickly, good excuse to have an extra pint.

Have a taste and if acceptable keg & carbonate but drink it quicker than you normally would. Last resort is down the drain... Only time I would give it to the grate gods if it's acidic. Do you ferment under airlock? I always use 5 gallon wine fermenters under airlock and never remove until the yeast...

Defo an infection... I once had one similar when I first started brewing from cans in the 80’s. If I remember correctly tho it didn’t spoil the beer? It just looked unsightly in the fermenter! If using DME I would always boil it so it’s been sterilised... Good look with future brews, and don’t let t...

Doesn't look too good..

I once brewed with Cascade and got an overpowering earthy taste..
