Rob Courtney Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 Gong to drink this over the next fortnight, I think five longnecks and a keg which are at 12 weeks now. These are the ones with the extra X5 in them to bring them up to the ol' 5.5% alchemahol volume so they should have had some time to settle down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Courtney Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 Ah no, had one in the group I took up on the weekend, was the one I didn't drink, just opened it then thinking it was an Aussie Pilsner thinking "WTF?" as the flavours were all wrong and then I thought, Eng Pub Draught with the extra kick to it. Getting the idea when you mess with the alcohol amount you need to let it sit a fair while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain 3 Droids Posted November 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 It is a queer feeling when your brain thinks it’s drinking this and expecting a particular taste to match and ends up with something completely different.

Yeah, you brain starts going " is it infected, why this bottle, why is that taste familiar" it took me a minute to work out that the taste I was getting was the stronger alcohol taste and I put 2 and 2 together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Courtney Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 Absolutely smashing a keg of this tonight as this is the only thing I have to relieve the pain from a day of cricket. To be honest, I think the extra X5 was not needed and probably didn't do anything great but lesson learned. Still, one of those very handy, cheap beers that takes a few wickets, keeps the runs tight but can no longer come off the long run, much like myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain 3 Droids Posted November 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 Message left 5 hours ago, that’s about 1am. No wonder the “long run” is off the attack 🎊.For me even the under arm would be out of the question. 😀🏏🏏 Your right in this being a top drop, one in my repeated list and would agree the extra E5 was probably not needed. Glad your enjoying it.🍺 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 3 droids I just have to do it, someone has too? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Courtney Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 I think this is such an underrated beer (not by us). No hops, a few ingredients but it bats above it's weight like a short balding coke dealer with an absolute hottie draped on him, mines just been put in the droid a couple of days, this time it'll go into bottles for my mid week madness 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul84 Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 No was just going to leave it , just incase something silly happens like we loose power or something like that . Anything possible through cyclone season lol. The thought of doing it and having it in storage mode when I got home was tempting though 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know you want to. 😯 If you loose power 1) fermentation continues and it takes a while to warm up in the droid 2) when the power comes back on the unit restores to original settings as if nothing has happened. I can vouch for this when a typical power cut happened here in Adelaide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note, no scent like lemon or lavender bleach. Regular plain bleach, White King regular is suitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul84 Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 So now have the hardest working Droid in the Pilbara ( probably only 1 lol ) . Weissbier out today and bottled and the English Pub Draught in . Looking forward to this one too . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain 3 Droids Posted February 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 A hard working droid means brew, brew, brew. My three have never had more than an hours rest.
