Notes: Classic Australian Sparkling Ale using Collected Coopers yeast built up.

Using Home Grown Whole Leaf

V1.1 This is the same as V1 except increased Boil Addition Hops by 50%.

V1.2 Added more Pride Of Ringwood at 5-10 minute mark

V2 had the same BUT I used Pils instead if Aussie Ale Malt.

V1.3 Now fly sparging instead of Batch sparging.

Really great Easy drinking Aussie Ale.

2025 - about to redrew with all home frown hops. Still using yeast from Coopers bottles. Happy to work with OS Brewers and send some vials OS for fans of this style

Notes: Mashed at ? degrees for an extended time while I was brewing other things.

Brewed 5/29/2022
At brewing, color was lighter than I expected, but to be honest it was a guess.
OG hit right as the calculated amount 1.035
Kegged on 6/9/2022
FG was actually lower than what calculation said
planned 1.007, achieved 1.002 resulting in an attenuation of 95% with this yeast and process.

Didn't know what to expect from this yeast, but the descriptor is that aroma is clove, pepper, and fruit notes, which I get.

Doing a second brew on 8/6/2022 using Savinjski Golding hops.
(IBU of 2.3 AA)

Second Time Brewing:
OG: 1.033
FG: 1.004
ABV = 3.8,
The same yeast was used, but had a slightly different efficiency, a little lower.
I used savinjdski Golding hops for that one, to hit the same IBU.

*Values may vary in the brewing process.

3A. Czech Pale Lager
Overall Impression: A lighter-bodied, rich, refreshing,
hoppy, bitter pale Czech lager having the familiar flavors of the
stronger Czech Premium Pale Lager (Pilsner-type) beer but in a
lower alcohol, lighter-bodied, and slightly less intense format.
Aroma: Light to moderate bready-rich malt combined with
light to moderate spicy or herbal hop bouquet; the balance
between the malt and hops may vary. Faint hint of caramel is
acceptable. Light (but never intrusive) diacetyl and light, fruity
hop-derived esters are acceptable, but need not be present. No
sulfur.
Appearance: Light gold to deep gold color. Brilliant to very
clear, with a long-lasting, creamy white head.
Flavor: Medium-low to medium bready-rich malt flavor with
a rounded, hoppy finish. Low to medium-high spicy or herbal
hop flavor. Bitterness is prominent but never harsh. Flavorful
and refreshing. Diacetyl or fruity esters are acceptable at low
levels, but need not be present and should never be
overbearing.
Mouthfeel: Medium-light to medium body. Moderate
carbonation.
Comments: The Czech name of the style is světlé výčepní
pivo.
History: Josef Groll initially brewed two types of beer in
1842–3, a výčepní and a ležák, with the smaller beer having
twice the production; Evan Rail speculates that these were
probably 10 °P and 12 °P beers, but that the výčepní could have
been weaker. This is the most consumed type of beer in the
Czech Republic at present.
Characteristic Ingredients: Soft water with low sulfate and
carbonate content, Saazer-type hops, Czech Pilsner malt, Czech
lager yeast. Low ion water provides a distinctively soft,
rounded hop profile despite high hopping rates.
Style Comparison: A lighter-bodied, lower-intensity,
refreshing, everyday version of Czech Premium Pale Lager.
Vital Statistics: OG: 1.028 – 1.044
IBUs: 20 – 35 FG: 1.008 – 1.014
SRM: 3 – 6 ABV: 3.0 – 4.1%
Commercial Examples: Březňák Světlé výčepní pivo, Notch
Session Pils, Pivovar Kout na Šumavě Koutská 10°, Únětické
pivo 10°
Tags: session-strength, pale-color, bottom-fermented, lagered,
central-europe, traditional-style, pale-lager-family, bitter,
hoppy
3B. Czech Premium Pale Lager
Overall Impression: Rich, characterful, pale Czech lager,
with considerable malt and hop character and a long, rounded
finish. Complex yet well-balanced and refreshing. The malt
flavors are complex for a Pilsner-type beer, and the bitterness
is strong but clean and without harshness, which gives a
rounded impression that enhances drinkability.
Aroma: Medium to medium-high bready-rich malt and
medium-low to medium-high spicy, floral, or herbal hop
bouquet; though the balance between the malt and hops may
vary, the interplay is rich and complex. Light diacetyl, or very
low fruity hop-derived esters are acceptable, but need not be
present.
Appearance: Gold to deep gold color. Brilliant to very clear
clarity. Dense, long-lasting, creamy white head.
Flavor: Rich, complex, bready maltiness combined with a
pronounced yet soft and rounded bitterness and floral and
spicy hop flavor. Malt and hop flavors are medium to mediumhigh, and the malt may contain a slight impression of caramel.
Bitterness is prominent but never harsh. The long finish can be
balanced towards hops or malt but is never aggressively tilted
either way. Light to moderate diacetyl and low hop-derived
esters are acceptable, but need not be present.
Mouthfeel: Medium body. Moderate to low carbonation.
Comments: Generally a group of pivo Plzeňského typu, or
Pilsner-type beers. This style is a combination of the Czech
styles světlý ležák (11–12.9 °P) and světlé speciální pivo (13–
14.9 °P). In the Czech Republic, only Pilsner Urquell is called a
Pilsner, despite how widely adopted this name is worldwide.
Kvasnicové (“yeast beer”) versions are popular in the Czech
Republic, and may be either kräusened with yeasted wort or
given a fresh dose of pure yeast after fermentation. These beers
are sometimes cloudy, with subtle yeastiness and enhanced
hop character. Modern examples vary in their malt to hop
balance and many are not as hop-forward as Pilsner Urquell.
History: Commonly associated with Pilsner Urquell, which
was first brewed in 1842 after construction of a new brewhouse
by burghers dissatisfied with the standard of beer brewed in
Plzeň. Bavarian brewer Josef Groll is credited with first
brewing the beer.
Characteristic Ingredients: Soft water with low sulfate and
carbonate content, Saazer-type hops, Czech malt, Czech lager
yeast. Low ion water provides a distinctively soft, rounded hop
profile despite high hopping rates. The bitterness level of some
larger commercial examples has dropped in recent years,
although not as much as in many contemporary German
examples.
Style Comparison: More color, malt richness, and body than
a German Pils, with a fuller finish and a cleaner, softer
impression. Stronger than a Czech Pale Lager.
Vital Statistics: OG: 1.044 – 1.060
IBUs: 30 – 45 FG: 1.013 – 1.017
SRM: 3.5 – 6 ABV: 4.2 – 5.8%
Commercial Examples: Bernard Sváteční ležák, Gambrinus
Premium, Kout na Šumavě Koutská 12°, Pilsner Urquell,
Pivovar Jihlava Ježek 11°, Primátor Premium, Únětická 12°
Tags: standard-strength, pale-color, bottom-fermented,
lagered, central-europe, traditional-style, pilsner-family,
balanced, hoppy
