What are you drinking right now?
- Thread starter Ozarks Mountain Brewery
- Start date
Clove in a Hefe is very subtle. And it's not exactly clove (at least to my palate) but quite similar. You should also be getting a little yeastiness in there, often called bready. Oh, and Hefe is often at around 4 vols, so very fizzy for a beer.
If you brew this, try to find "stronger" bottles, as standard ale bottles can break from the pressure. Ideal would be European Hefe bottles.

Yup dropping it won't help clarity I find beers with it are brite for me.
If you wanna see through it you may want to scale back the SRM maybe by 10
Good tips, thanks Don.

Beer from last year. Altbier is still good
Drinking some of my pilsner
Yup hazy pils lol.
And this is the last pour of my Dark Mild
I'm not kidding it blew bubbles after that shot!
So round two Dark Mild is in the pipeline.
I'm seriously considering a packet of chopped up dates maybe 10 left in the boil

I love that glass!
Looks like some heat to that one @Craigerrr !
Damn 11.9% ?? . A sipper for sure!
Doing that long awaited side by side.
Left pilsner with RO been lagering over month. OG 1.044 FG 1.010 used Finnings and Ascorbic Acid
Right fresh Pilsner (1 week in keg) my water.
OG 1.044 FG 1.008 (two points extra). No Finnings

The RO pils seems crisper and it's kinda dryer.
My water pilsner is a little softer it's not as bitter but I did lower the IBUs a tad on it.
My water pilsner is also a bit rawer like bread doughy it needs some lagering time it's still a bit "green". But it does seem to have a tad extra body or is more full on the flavour just slightly.
The Ro pilsner has what I feel that classic pilsner feel. It's a better beer but it's also hopped with Sazz compared to my water pilsner it's hopped with Mittlefuruh I do LOVE Sazz though.
Cool I hope you liked this side by side I've lernt a bit.
I'm happy with both beers. My Water pislner is a bit hazy i think fermentation didnt go as well as in the RO one same yeast just the next generation on.
Overall they both arnt my best crack at pilsner but I'm sure they pass for style
might brew this one again and enter it into the QLD comp and see what the judges think.
Cheers

I need to brew this again
Been a while. Love hat place. I like their burgers, flatbreads, and of course beer. Oasis was one I remember. THe Red and Piranha were great too.
