My Triple Bock is based on this recipe from Michael Tonsmeire - https://www.themadfermentationist.com/2009/05/wheat-triplebock_17.html?m=1 I didn't get up to that FG though & ended up with a 16 litre batch rather than the 20 litres I aimed for. The grain bill was too big for my kit to be honest...

This one is mine & I'm so glad you enjoyed it as I'm pretty proud of it & have shared a few around this Xmas. It's the strongest beer I've brewed by quite some margin & based on this recipe - Wheat Triplebock. I brewed this in April & bottled it in July. I did a split batch - half as you've...

I have 2 oxebar kegs. Only 1 brew in each so far but a hoppy wheat beer has been kegged for 6 weeks & still fresh. No experience of cleaning yet but I've bought one of the Malt Miller drill attachments for that...

And to finish was beer #2 from Santa #2, a 9.5% Impy. Perfect carbonation for the style left a tight tan head on a jet black beer. Kudos! Aroma was quite fruity but flavour was all coffee & chocolate. Hid its strength well & was a smooth sipper. Thanks for both beers Santa #2!

Beer #1 from Santa #2 was a bock. Great carbonation for a lager & a deeper red / brown hue. Lots of dark fruits & caramel in the flavour although finished a little on the sweet side for me. I do like a darker lager style though so thanks for sending Santa #2.

Beer #2 from Santa #1 was an APA. Bottled from keg but retained a perfect carbonation (something I perpetually struggle with) that showed off an enticing fruit salad aroma. Strata's dank, almost savoury / herbal vibes were on full show in the flavour. Nice caramel undertones with a balancing...

Beer #1 from Santa #1 was a Brucie Bonus Bitter. As you can see, crystal clear & a nice clinging head. A fairly muted aroma but lovely malt forward flavour with a balanced bitterness. I quaffed this quite happily so thanks Santa #1!

Very much so...here's what Santa #2 sent me today!

Cheers Santa #1, very generous of you!

I'll get a beer out to you later in the month. Will PM for address.

I'll do March freestyle if that's ok.

I'm in for 2 please. Thanks again for organising!
