sorry its a kit but perhaps the Tooheys classic dry lager kit with a touch of amylase to dry it down even futher?

Hi mate,

I gave that a go and it wad nothing like it, I even went as far as asking tooheys and there responce was that they do not make these kits, a third party company does :(

For the Belhaven Scottish Stout recipe, someone on homebrewtalk asked the brewery here:
http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/belhave ... ost2141767

And got the following reply:

[quote]
-----------------------------------------------------
The Stout is brewed using crystal malt (1%), chocolate malt (5%), roast
barley (4%) and white malt (90%).

It is not overly hopped for a stout which gives a good balance and
drinkability.

The brewery mash tun is about 100 years old; we brew with water from our
own borehole and use our own yeast strain. These three combined
contribute to a whole load of flavour! (These are the only secrets in
the process).

Hope that's helped. The only hint or tip I can give you is to keep on
experimenting with the home brewing which is after all half the fun!

Other Belhaven beers worth trying are Scottish Ale, a 5.2% traditionally
Scottish beer full of malty sweetness. Wee heavy, a 6.5% strong dark
malty beer also traditionally Scottish. Twisted Thistle IPA, 6.1% pretty
bitter but with a slight sweetness.

A) It's Oz (if you must,) not Ozzy. Or Aus/Aussie. I am an Aussie, I come from Aus (although I would never say that...)
B) TED is rubbish. It's in a clear bottle FFS. But if you must, any bland international style lager (kit or grain) with the addition of a dry enzyme and Saflager 189 fermented at 19C should get you damn close.
