The Weihenstephan which you take as an example for Helles ist actually a Pils, as the bottle says 😅 I don't know that specific beer but it should be simpler, more bitter and dryer than a Helles.
That Marzen sounds amazing! Glad it worked out. Most of my favourite final homebrews caused me mild depression when tasting them from the fermenter. Also, "I don't think it beats my wheat." 29:14 feels like it should be a t-shirt.
@davedreves6522 this is the fermenter we use, the dry hopper doesn’t come with it but we do explain in the vid all the mods we made to the tank Ss Brewtech Half bbl Unitank Review - The BEST Homebrewing Fermenter? th-cam.com/video/smp3jv-l_yY/w-d-xo.html But it’s a Ss brewtech half Bbl unitank, and the dry hopper is from newera brewing from memory, but it’s basically just a 3 inch sight glass with a butterfly valve and a 3 inch plate with a gas inlet and prv release
I would be very upset if I was brewing a lager and it came out looking like that iGulu beer 😂 I wonder if the fermentation stalled or if the malt extract had a tonne of unfermentable sugars hence the sweet taste? Also what's the German beer selection like in Aus? I noticed you had the Weihenstephaner pils rather than the Helles?

Hahaha honestly did not realise! 😂 was also the closest thing we could find to a helles at the bottle shop
Good job fellas.
The after party must have been a treat !
Our heads the next morning weren’t 😂

Hahaha yeah we know those feels now. Lol I will turn it into a shirt now 😂 I’ll let u know when I design one and get it up on our store hahaha
It sounds like your Helles is more in line with a Dortmunder (or Helles Export as the US people call it)
Yeah very likely could be, it’s definitely got more malt back bone than I think what is traditional
Hi, I'd like to know what brand and size conical fermenter you use and does it come with the dry hop glass mechanism. Thanks great info you give too

Probably not drunk traditionally at that time of year I dont know. But I like a good dunkel
Haha not rlly but it still tastes awesome, I do love dunkels
I dare you to make a helles but make it Aussie as helles with some Pride of ringwood. That looked like a really fun one!!!
You know what I reckon that’d actually go down brilliantly, with summer coming I may whack that one on the list quite soon

Honestly the selection isn’t super spectacular, you can find some limited German beers at a liquor store, normally pauliner, franciskaner or this
You should mix them! Then it would be perfect! 😂😂
Lol, Odin did mix every beer on the table near the end…. Can’t say it was brilliant 😂
Rotbeir
How does rotbier compare to a modern red ale? Or Irish red?
