[WalesAles]

Lidl selling Stawberries for 74p / 500gr, bargain!
So I bought 3Kg to make some Beer!

1Kg Med Spraymalt
3Kg Fresh Strawberries (Pulped)
SG @ 22deg 1046

Ah WTF, no hops?

Bloody rubbish Mun!

Checked this brew today, down to 1010. Bottling tomorrow. Smelling Great!
Took the FV out of the Trug, filled trug with cold water, put FV in trug with 6 BIG ice blocks from take-away trays to cool down the beer.
I always make a Brew and bottle my beers when Mrs Ales is in work, less hassle in the kitchen and Mrs Ales doesn`t know what`s going on!
Or so I thought! Mrs Ales saw me cooling the beer and said `Your TC has been in the fridge for 2 wks, put the TC in the Filing Cabinet,
put the FV in the fridge and it will cool down in there!`
Don`t you just love them!
Why didn`t I think of that? That`s why I got the fridge off Freecycle in the first place!
Bloody Hell Mun!

What does it look like?


sounds like a tasty summer drink

[D4nny74]

Defo making this, have all the stuff too

[TheSumOfAllBeers]

Infinite variations too. I think a strawberry wit or even a saison would be great

H,
It looks like `Strawberry Beer`.
It is a very tasty summer drink.




I will post pics of it when (if) I come home from the `Homebrew Festival` in one piece on Sunday.

What a Beautiful Beer!
Packed with flavour. Smell is great. Tiny bubbles of Loveliness bursting on the back of my tongue!

Wales did you have to strain the beer at all or did the fruit pulp simply settle out in the FV? I am curious as I would normally freeze the fruit whole and then thaw it and put it in a straining bag in the FV to ferment.

I have a pale ale that has been on the go for a few days now and a few bags of berries in the freezer and I just now spied the wife's blender in the kitchen ........................
