Beer tasting roundup

Until now I have brewed Christmas Beer, Ale, IPA & Steam Beer.
Christmas Beer: It tastes rather well, but not like Christmas.
Ale: Tastes very good! A success!
IPA: First taste was a bit disappointing, but second taste was much better. A success!
Steam Beer: First taste was promising...

Pilsner (Steam beer) on track

Iv wanted to brew a beer for my wife ever since I started, so im gonna have a try with a golden "Pilsner" beer. But im doing it a bit different. Normally you use a yeast that works at 5-10 C, but I cant duplicate that temperature, so im going to use a yeast for 20 C. Its not "correct" to do it this way, but its worth a try.

Recipes can be found at http://www.haandbryg.dk/cgi-bin/beercalc.cgi - search for "Becks" in the "name" field.

New beer on bottle!

It was so much fun brewing the Christmas beer, that I brewed a new one with my neighbor.
We went for an Ale and it was really funny.

Tasting only 10 days after bottling demonstrated a fresh but dark beer - easy to enjoy!
