    Onto the Hloucester Gold from the variety box I posted up earlier. This is the one I've been wanting to try but it's only OK.

    Recommend me a low alcohol (1% or less) commercial brew

    Don't think so. Despite this they are typically same price as regular beer. Totally justifiable for smaller batch craft producers who use innovative methods to reduce alcohol but for say Heineken zero tge saved duty is basically additional profit margin. Guinness is due to enter the market...

    Recommend me a low alcohol (1% or less) commercial brew

    Waitrose are currently doing a Big Drop beginners selection box of 8 beers some of which are ace. The pine trail pale ale is my favourite. I have also started ordering from dry drinker. I got the belgian selection recently and whilst they were hit and miss the AF tripel I really enjoyed. The...

    What are you drinking tonight 2021?

    Continuing with the fruit/ wheat thing a post lawnmowing raspberry wheat. This is so tart and refreshing served freezing cold. Only did a half size corny and fear it's going to kick any minute before the decent weather.

    What are you drinking tonight 2021?

    Suns finally out and although on leave today have pretty much only just finished up working. Have just planted out a fig tree so time for one of these which I must say is hitting the spot nicely - really good summer drink.

    Elderflower Champagne First Timer

    Mine has been a very similar experience - I filtered and pitched a second sachet and turned heat up. Mine is quite fizzy straight out of FV and I now think that I was getting false readings due to bubbles sticking to hydrometer - I have left a sample in the trial jar and now its calmed down the...

    Hazelwood Brewday

    Not read the whole vodka thread above but just to comment that for all of my airlock needs I am working my way through the remains a cheap bottle of Lidl vodka someone brought to a party at ours. Takes the worry out of anything getting sucked back into the brew when cold crashing.

    Elderflower Champagne First Timer

    Morning All Normally brew beer but blessed with all of the equipment and my spouse's enthusiasm to try something with elderflowers embarked on 12L of elderflower champagne about 8 days ago. Its fermenting at about 20C in one of my s/s FVs. Plan to take a gravity reading later but my...

    A little walk along Bermondsey Mile

    How far off piste did you wander - at a push I would say that could even be the Bunch of Grapes bby london Bridge.

    A little walk along Bermondsey Mile

    Reminiscent of my 40th birthday monopoly board pub crawl. We worked out that if we alternated 1 pint, half, short then things would still be sensible by pub 24. Wheels came off when we lost our discipline by drinking 3vpints on Pentonville road. Fair to say the 5 star hotel on Park Lane was...

    Brewdog in trouble again

    Just read the article - this is so far out of order its untrue. regardless of the use of the word solid there is no way that anybody wouldn't have a definite expectation of receiving something that tangibly was worth £15 grand.

    I'm a bit of a New Order geek - even went to watch the last night if their residency in Miami last year just before covid struck.
