Yeah, the last one was definitely Belgian, this one Bohemian. Seriously though, just great drops to drink, might limit the pain of being able to walk after a day of cricket 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Courtney Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 This is the joy of just throwing bottles into a box, a bottle of Boho but three of Belgian, just a lovely brew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Courtney Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Knocking off a 4 month keg of Belgian, bit of a treat to drink. Mark, do you dry hop this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dry hop only. Not sure what you mean by “hop pouch” as I dry hop in a bag so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Courtney Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 Liquid hops that Brewart supplies. Don't worry, it answers my question and I will adjust the amount of dry hops I put in cause I may as well use the hop pouches (hop oil) given I have paid for them and make the dry hops stretch a little bit further Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d use the liquid brew print hops and 10g of pellets for the dry hop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Courtney Posted December 18, 2019 Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 Well yep, thinking 2 days is good for dry hopping after that sample. True the proof will be in a few more weeks when I crack a bottle but yeah, the sample today whilst brewing was very promising indeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Courtney Posted December 18, 2019 Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 Actually looking forward to this brew I have just done. I can taste the difference between how I was doing hops before (long story, I am sure nobody wants to hear it anymore) to how I used the pouches now, The bitterness in the brew really stands out but I am hoping for a bit more again with dry hopping...actually should be a lot more Fairly handy brew to be drinking, even if it has dropped down from 40 degrees to 23 ( one reason I moved here) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Courtney Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 So, last of the non dry hopping Belgians...I think, may be one more, I do brew it a bit...ha, no it isn't, this is the Sep version and there is a Nov version, still, happy pints watching cricket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Courtney Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 I tried some Pirate Lager whilst up in Adelaide off tap. Nice enough, easily better than the lagers etc on tap down where I live but this has it covered by a stretch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul84 Posted December 30, 2019 Report Share Posted December 30, 2019 Ive only had the pirate lager once , just to say I have tried it and because i have generally enjoyed everything else that has come out of that brewery. Wasnt hard to drink but not my cup of tea as I dont really do Lagers , but might have to give the belgian a run as it is getting good reviews here 😉 . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried a few different craft lagers and some are really nice whilst others including P/L are better than the major brand dry beers ( but that is a efiin' low bar. The Belgian is a touch different t other beers I have tried but will put a smile on your face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Courtney Posted January 24, 2020 Report Share Posted January 24, 2020 Imagine, I have a keg of this on the go. I was thinking of only getting 2 of this with the order...3 it is, I just needed reminding of how good it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
