Hi,
Interesting brew. Unusual hop combo. Would love to know what it tastes like. Is the coconut noticeable?

Aye it's a completely random brew. And sadly the coconut isn't massively noticeable at 100g from the trail jar

I'm surprised you don't get any coconut with 100g, but maybe the hops are masking it. Do you intend to "dry hop" with any coconut?

Sadly I used up all the coconut in the boil. Maybe as the hops fade in the bottle you will get more coconut

Beers now at 1.011 so I've dry hopped it with another !00g of hops

Certainly a fair old hop combo you've got going on there mate.

I picked up 100g of Eureka a few weeks back, I had a bottle of St Austell Eureka earlier this year and found it rather tasty.

Cheers

I've got 21 different in my freezer so was trying to get thru a few really. Euruka smelt ok not as strong as wolf or cardinal we shall see what it tastes like in a few weeks

I got a few of them hanging about from the geterbrewed competition.

Wolf or cardinal are deffo the better ones in terms of open the packet aroma

Would you say wolf and cardinal pair well?

I used um in different brews Alex but I can't see why not. Cardinal had lots of boiled jam notes. Wolf was more soft fruits

Thanks. I've got to get round to using them up.
