Hmmm..he had such a catalogue of recipes and clones to be looking at brewing too...Doesn't seem to have been active since April. You can't even tag him with @Cheshire Cat. I wonder if he deactivated his account?![]()

It's beyond me why people only protest about oil i just don't get it
I’ve had a plan to make that recipe for a long time but other brews got made first. Still have the maize and melanoid I bought for it as they don’t seem to be widely used. I’m not even sure I could taste the difference without them - I think if it’s dry, alcoholic and the yeast gives banana it will be quite similar.View attachment 88679
For those interested here's the recipe. Any further thoughts welcome but I'm gonna use this as a starting point as it's popped up a good many times during the "what are you drinking" section.
What are you doing about the mash? Single step, 67C?View attachment 88679

Never had a 7.5% Delerium, but I have seen Kasteel Rouge in Morrisons at 7%, I tried it definitly inferior to the original 8% so I've not bought the 7% since. Also I would often have a pint of leffe blonde in a 'spoons - does wonders for tired cycling legsIt's because of the increases in duty which are needed to partly replace the £bns of tax lost due to Brexit, and partly because the government has identified changing the duty system to favour draught over smallpack as something that they couldn't do under existing EU rules. And they're really desperate to do stuff to show that we're "free", regardless of the knock-on effects.
So the tax on bottles of beer is going up, and that means ABV reductions to keep beer at the same price points. You're also going to see a lot of weaker beers being reduced to 3.4% to go under a new tax boundary. Likewise it is going to be very hard for breweries to sell anything over 8.5% as the duty has doubled. One to pay attention to is Huyghe, who used to brew a special 7.5% version of Delirium for the UK to fit under the old strong beer limit, hopefully they will now send us the standard 8.5% version.
Hadn't got that far but yes,sounds about right.What are doing about the mash? Single step, 67C?
Apparently ABI are now brewing Leffe Blonde in the UK, not sure about the Brun. Another Brexit benefit.
I was out there with work a few times(happy days, a paid booze cruise). The locals considered Jupiler was a step up from Stella which was only for tourists.In my experience when anything that is usually brewed abroad and is then brewed in the UK the result has always been worse.
Unless of course 'jupiler' was brewed here, can't imagine that being worse here, Belgium's version of fosters IMO
Jupiler is definitely better than Stella. Not hard though. It's all generic pils.I was out there with work a few times(happy days, a paid booze cruise). The locals considered Jupiler was a step up from Stella which was only for tourists.
