It was MM. :thumb:

There's a recipe for me to try.

What you make of the yeast? Significant factor?

Tbh i have not used liquid yeasts much maybe 3 times Clibit but every brew has been much better then say using 05 dried yeast well worth the money imo, theres definitely some lovely fruity notes in this brew

I may brew a small batch of this to see the difference using 05 to this yeast maybe i just love this hop? i think it would be a interesting experiment

I reckon it's both the hops and the yeast.

Edit: and the malts!

Let me have a think who came up with this for you??? I've got some green bullet myself. Never used them. Could a single hop ale be done?

Haha Bungle! tbh i was going to do a single hop this brew as id never used Wakatu before and got talking to Clibit thats where the recipe came from, the mash is on and the Hops all weighed out:grin:

 

[Bunglebrewsbeer]

Never used green bullet. Saw someone racing about a beer made with it a while ago so bought a bag. Not used yet.

I must start using all the bloody hops i have been buying bet i have close to 3kg of various hops , i think the next one i will be trying is Jarrylo as i have 300g of the stuff just sitting there

 

[Bunglebrewsbeer]

English ale next. Then I've got 100g Nelson unopened so might do a single hopped ale with that.

 

[clibit]

A lot of breweries have made single hop Green Bullet beers, here's one from Arbor on Ratebeer that gets good comments and scores.

[Bunglebrewsbeer]

Is there a recipe for it? Might have a tinker later Mrs out. No kids. Beer tinkering time.

 

[clibit]

I doubt there's a recipe.

 

[Bunglebrewsbeer]

Right well I'll have a mess about later and put up my efforts. See what you think later.
