Morgans Yukon Brown Smoked Ale | January 30th 2005 | |
An acquired tasteI made this up as the kit I wanted was out of stock when I went to the hbs so I thought I'd give it a go. Made with 1kg light malt and the kit yeast and 24gm goldings dry hopped. It has a distinct smoked aroma and flavour (my mates call it "bacon beer") and although I don't really like it and probably won't make it again. One of my friends reckons it is one of my best and loves it. (at least that means he can get through it and leave more of the homebrews I like for me:) |

Morgans Blue Mountain Lager | January 13th 2005 | |
Nice crisp lagerThis was the second brew I did. I just did the can + a Country Brewer 1kg Brew Booster (500g Dextrose/250g Maltodextrin/250 g Light Malt) and used the kit yeast. Ferment temp was about 22 - 24 and it still turned out OK. Nice taste, clean drinking beer. Goes very well with seafood. Seems to make cold prawns taste even sweeter! Will try this again but use 1kg malt and add some hops for a bit more aroma. |

Morgans Royal Oak Amber Ale | January 10th 2005 | |
Great kitThis is one of my favourite beers. I've made it 3 times now. the best combo so far was adding 1kg dry light malt and 24g Kent Goldings and making it up to only 20L After 4 weeks in the bottle it has a great taste, aroma and head. |

Morgans Iron Bark Dark Ale | January 10th 2005 | |
Good Porter baseI've used this as a base for a choc porter. Added 1 can Morgans Choc Malt extract, 250g dry dark malt, 250g maltodextrin and steeped 150gm choc grain. Added 24g Kent Golding hops. Used Safale instead of the kit yeast. Very yummy porter |
