What are you drinking 2024.

Stu · Friday at 9:54 PM

Officially, I've been drinking this, this evening.
Except it's in a silver tin, because I was given a can a few weeks back, before they put the labels on.

Right now, I feel like those people that used to get "white labels" of records (Anyone remember those?). I have the other one they announced tonight - Ebony Abyss. But at 11.4%, that's going to need a "special" evening.

I was handed another "silver tin" tonight. I can't tell you what it is, because there's a competition on to guess what it is. The only clue I'll give is that I'm not bothered about it, but the wife is.

Interesting! Never tried one, but I did read about them recently on the Grainfather forums. What didn't you like?

Great beers, I partially remember them all from the tasting room by (below?) the canal in the brewery basement.
Have you been there just recently? Or is it a selection box?

Oddly enough, I’ve got one user upper brew day left before I move house. I’ve got a fLIck ton of US hops and 1 sachet of MJ California Lager Yeast. A cold IPA was top of the list. My last one came out a storm, much of it got put away on this brew day

I suppose I just don’t like lagers. Seriously though the ones I’ve tried have not inspired me at all. Possibly I chose the wrong ones but there are sooooo many good beers out there I won’t be trying any more

Drinking a lovely Homebrew Double IPA. Happy Friday everyone.

My Sweet/Milk Stout.

In shadowed glass, your richness gleams,
A velvety brew of darkened dreams.
With roasted notes that softly sing,
Each sip a warm, and comforting thing.

Raise your glass, let voices ring,
To sweet stout’s charm, our praises bring.
For in your depths, we find delight,
A darkened bliss, our evening light.

Had a few cold ipa’s didn’t like any of them

I love a cold ipa. Only dregs of mine but otherwise I would have sent you a bottle.

I'm not drinking at this time - meant to post this last night!

Muntons Connoisseurs Bock - a gap filler brew as the weather and life has got in the way of AG brewing. I replaced the kit yeast (which i believe is an ale yeast) with MJ M76 Bavarian Lager Yeast and used Coopers Light LME. Fermented in my fermzilla under pressure. 2 weeks in the keg at 5degC, 12psi. Carbonation is great and the beer has cleared well. It's just a described on the kit - Lager-y and malty

I wasn't expecting much from this kit, having watched review of it, but I managed to get through about 3 pints quite easily last night!

I possibly just have had poor examples of the style by the reaction lol

It's a great tour. No, these were from my local bar/bottle shop. Haven't had any in a while and spotted they had those two.

Dry Stout courtesy of @Alastair70

Very, very dark brown. Just a hint of ruby highlights at the bottom of the glass.

Poured with a foamy head, which dissipated to a cm of head throughout the pint. As expected with a carbonated stout

Big roast, chocolate, and earthy aromas and flavours in this one.

Bitterness is there, but a spot on level for me as doesn't intefere with the overall balance of the beer

Finish is spicy and dry, do I detect some rye?

Very nice beer, thanks pal.

Good tasting, there is a charge of chocolate rye in the mix. I was going all out for roast flavour on this one, and hit the bullseye. It’s serving on nitro at home and is absolutely delicious.
Glad you enjoyed it
