You could use one of the Aldi/Lidl veg bags. I use those for dry hopping, they work well and stop most of the bits 👍 Cheers Tom

Yep, there should have been one in the box 👍 At least they used to include one.... Cheers Tom

Sad news ☹️ Cheers Tom

I may be in the minority about this but as soon as I see cartoon style/weird colourful designs on a can of beer it's an immediate no from me. I get that they may be doing it to attract the eye and stand out but when every other "craft/artisan" brewery's wares look the same they no longer have...

Just playing devil's advocate here but what about the people who are unable to get "a proper job" yet still need to support a family? Sometimes circumstances conspire against people and put them in unfortunate circumstances Cheers Tom

I had to Google it and I live just across the river from it. One of their beers is called Dockers Umbrella after the old railway that used to run above the waterfront. My problem with it is that it's a Helles Lager. What the bl00dy hell has an old railway got to do with a German lager? I can't...

I'm currently about half way through the Superior 7 Shiraz. It's ok but I found the South Africa Red and Malbec a bit sharp, a bit acidic for my taste. That said I drank every last drop and enjoyed them once I adjusted to them. One of the other members on here has done the Hoptimum 2 (licking...

I've had a few wine kits from him. He's a good guy. He delivered them personally as he was in the area Cheers Tom

Not sure about the Hoptimum but I'm 99% certain that their Hoptimum 2 range are rebadged Muntons Connoisseurs range. Their description of each beer is word for word the same as the Muntons Cheers. Tom

They don't. Just go on their website. The only time we've been "directed" to their app is via Google search results. Never had a problem with any of the stuff we've got from them. Cheers Tom

I've had a Festival Britfire in a fermenter for 12 days now and it's still going. Started at 1.046 and is on 1.013 now. Not far to go but It's not in any rush to finish. It's been at or around 20-21⁰c for most of the time too Cheers Tom

Don't forget to put the little sock over the syphon inside the fermenter when you bottle or you will get hop bits in your beer. Apologies if I'm stating the blindingly obvious but I'd rather that that have anyone risk (possibly) mucking their beer up Cheers Tom

Just had another thought. The Mr Beer kits make 14 pints, would they be an option? https://innhousebrewery.co.uk/search?options%5Bunavailable_products%5D=show&options%5Bprefix%5D=last&q=Mr+beer Cheers Tom

He looks like a right wazzock. Well done to that Scottish gentleman for calling a spade, a spade. Walking around talking to your phone, as if anyone gives a s***e about what he's got to say. Cheers Tom

I couldn't bottle my wine after using the bag in box things. Bag in box for wine and cornies for beer, it's the future 😁 Cheers Tom

How many of the smaller breweries that get bought up by a national brewery/large company survive more than a few years? Would Hawkshead have gone bust had Halewood not bought them? I do often wonder why small breweries allow themselves to be gobbled up by a big company, are the owners just...

These also http://www.baginboxonline.co.uk/buyit1.html Cheers Tom

I've used these for years. If you only push the tap in one "click" they're easy to take out but still seal well. https://www.baginboxshop.co.uk/copy-of-eco-bag-in-box-bib-1 Cheers Tom

Just got my order in at Dark Rock. I couldn't wait, my thumb was getting too twitchy. So...... Nectaron ✔️ Riwaka ✔️ Citra ✔️ Hoppy Days ✔️ I wonder if I'll get the boost with them. I did ask if it was included a while ago, they said not anymore but there may be some stock left that has it. I...

Just edited that last post as for some reason I put the West Coast as my choice for the 4th beer. Changed it to the Hoppy Days as that was actually my original choice when I stated thinking about an order Cheers Tom
