Brew off 2021 returns

[Hoddy]

The next instalment of the 4 way brew off series has been agreed.

@Leon103 @dan125 @dave_77 and myself @Hoddy will be entering into the next round of the brew off series independently judged by @beerison

The next round is simply “uk hops” that’s it. No style restrictions or ABV to follow. Just Uk hops only.

Who will triumph this time. Only time will tell.

 

[dave_77]

it's that time again

When's the judging

 

[beerison]

Yeah, when's the judging?

 

[Hoddy]

I think because of @dan125 and @Leon we are looking at first week of sept

 

[beerison]

First two weeks of Sept will be pretty busy. I think I could do the judging in the evening, but unlikely I will be able to join the "tasing" session

 

[Leon103]

No problem, perhaps send any notes etc to Dan and Dave

Mine will be my first brew with the brew devil. Something I had planned anyway.

 

[dan125]

My ingredients arrived today.... now just a matter of timing

 

[Leon103]

Brewed mine today.

 

[dan125]

Brewing mine today and you boys could be in trouble if I carry on hitting all my numbers like this.

 

[Hoddy]

I’m not brewing mine till I get back from holibobs. Late as usual

 

[dave_77]

Chilling the brew off batch...
Yeast starter was a little lively

 

[Hoddy]

Hops and ingredients have been ordered and arrived. But I’m currently sat in a tent in wareham so my entry won’t be started until Sunday. I wonder what the hops might be

I've done more camping around Wareham and Corfe Castle than I've had hot dinners. Which campsite are you on?

We were on Birchwood Tourist park. Really nice, clean and well ran campsite. Right on the forest so I managed to get a few trail runs in. Lovely.

 

[dave_77]

Brew off time is getting closer..think I will keg my beer tomorrow.

 

[Leon103]

Looks like it was a big fermentation.

Had another taste of mine last night and it's not clearing as I had hoped.

Yeah it was a little lively. I haven't tasted mine at all yet

 

[dave_77]

Kegged the Brew off beer yesterday

 

[Hoddy]

Mine was dry hopped () on the weekend so it should be good to be kegged in the second half of the week.

I don’t think mine will clear up in time either but hey ho
