Okay. By me stellenbrau and lamb braai goes together because i buy both at those two shops. So if I buy beer i always think why not braai as well.

Well both were equally good. It is like coke makes a meal but stellenbrau makes a braai

You Shouldn't

Stouts should be enjoyed a bit warmer. Around 9°C does it for me. Not ice cold. It kills a lot of the flavour and highlights a lot of the sharper notes.

Jys mal. All beers should be coming out of the freezer just before they start to ice

I also like it ice cold. Cba about the 'proper' way to drink something, especially in summer.

I always put my beer (and beer glass) in the freezer for about 15 mins before drinking it.

Anyway.

Started up a totally random recipe this week. 3.2kg pils malt, 100g each Munich T1 and T2, 350g dextrose (yes), 12g Nugget at 60 minutes and 12g Mittelfrueh at flameout. I'm trying something. It'll go along to a party, so if it doesn't work, I'll be serving bad beer.

I'll be fermenting with Voss and it has to be served in 16 days. Yeast is only being pitched tomorrow. Hope I didn't bite off too much.

next time pour 2 sips in a 2nd glass and let it warm to about 10ºC ... you'll pick up more flavours
