    As always, this is a nice pint. Maybe more hops need next time (dry hop), or maybe I'll swap the dry hops for a hop with a higher AA% as the aroma is lacking.

    I bottled this one on Sunday after 2 weeks in the FV. Estimated FG was 1.017. Actual was 1.007, this an ABV of 8.27%. Not sure if my stepped mash ob this one resulted in more fermentables in it, or if an infection has taken hold. Tasted fine when bottling (quite alcoholic!) so will see in 6...

    What are you drinking tonight 2024.

    My recipe is here. Post in thread 'Notts beers days' https://www.thehomebrewforum.co.uk/threads/notts-beers-days.95266/post-1290564 Inspired by your recipe👍. Looking at the thread I did note the trial jar after boiling was nice and bitter (mellow bitter!) but it obviously lost a bit after that...

    What are you drinking tonight 2024.

    Glad you enjoyed it 👍. This was called Exe Valley Bitter. It was 40IBU, but as you say a bit more wouldn't be a bad thing. I find with this brew that the second bottle always tastes better than the first 😂. Cheers for the feedback 🍻🍻

    What are you drinking tonight 2024.

    Glad you enjoyed it. Hopped with Perle, Columbus (Tomahawk) and Magnum. Sadly I'm nearly out of this one, definitely going to be brewing it again🍻🍻

    Just checked my notes for this one and annoyingly I didn't note which yeast I used. I guess I used something appropriate....but from recent swaps this style is not one i'd make again. I wonder if I'm not too keen on the flavour from the yeast🤔. I used Tradition and Fuggles....will post what I...

    Review Time......with apologies! I had the beers kindly sent by @pilgrimhudd and @Alastair70 last night. At the time I didn't realise I was coming down with a cold (woke up this morning with a rough throat and slightly hazy head....not related to the beers!!). I think this clouded by tasting of...

    Slow fermentation... or is it?

    I'm sure yours will get there and taste great👍.

    Slow fermentation... or is it?

    I'm brewing a Trappist style at the moment, using Flushed Nun (CML) yeast. Like you this is more of a steady slow burn. Has taken a week to get to FG (around 1.016). This is normal for this brew I've found. Will leave it another week to do it's job before bottling. Like you, other beers can be...

    Thanks for your kind review👍. Like you I've no idea about this style. I'm saving the ones I have for the weekend when I have time to savour them! Really glad you liked it. 🍻

    Had a taster of this lastnight. Coming along nicely, this has been in the bottle 3 weeks and will be great in a coupe more.

    Trappist style V4 This maybe my last brew of 2024. Hopefully saving the best to last!! Having done a couple of bitters and an IPA recently, I really wanted to get a Trappist style done again. This is the 4th version of the one I'm playing with. This time my recipe was (for 17L batch): 4kg...

    Mine are also bottle conditioned so also give them time to settle before drinking 👍.
