WBC 5 Vs Hallertau Maximus Humulus Lupulus
A big thank you for Colin for letting us host this event at the Malthouse and to Dion and Carl for judging the event. The winner of WBC IV went to Simon David Kelly with his intresting but stunning Tamarillo Ale it was a deserved winner as it was well executed for the style and just a good drop!!
With every winner there is a loser and this wooden spoon went to the winner of WBC III Dale Cooper with his KiwiFruit Wit, Dales choice for the WBC V is for everyone to brew one of the countrys leading West Coast styled IPA Hallertau's Maximus Humulus Lupulus, which steve has posted the recipe here; http://www.forum.realbeer.co.nz/forum/topics/maximus-cloning?commen...
So what the idea is is for everyone to brew this beer the same as posted (I can help with the Gladfield Pale malt) Some might think this is strange but I think its ingenious, as it will all give us an idea of how diffrent brewers and brewerys differ in creating essentially the same beer and the best Clone wins!!!!!!
The Date for this event is scheduled for the Saturday the 23 of October @ 3pm
As mentioned I can assist with the Gladfield Pale malt so just drop us a line if you would like to use it for the brew other wise all other listed ingredients can be found @ www.libertybrewing.co.nz

That's timely, I just ordered some simcoe and columbus from Liberty just the other day.
Sorry I missed the last one. I've had a serious lack of time and malt. I've steadied the ship now though. -

Nice work Simon and great option Dale!
Chris has been cloning maximus for a few months now so there's definitely going to be some good competition here. -

I have one. Tastes fine, although only one week in the bottle. I can make the 23rd sans children for a change!
