Irish red ale posted yesterday, hopefully will arrive in one piece bit concerned about my Munich helles that I've got on this morning for the April lager entry, first time brewing a lager apart from an October fest and am v v concerned about colour, was looking for straw and seem to have created grey , mashed low for hopefully a dryer finish, maybe to low 64oc ? Oh well god loves a tryer

Scrap my entry @samale
My one remaining bottle of new year beer (that I had been saving for this comp!) was put out on the side in the kitchen yesterday to be posted today, and my daughter's boyfriend was round last night and drank it.

Needless to say, he was then beaten to death with said bottle and his remains buried under the patio

You were too easy on the lad. He should have been dragged out to the crossroads and a stake driven through his heart. Papa Legba would know what to do with that type of oik!
