Home Brew Competition - August 17

:lol: That doesn't bode well for my chances :lol:

I'm hoping it comes through as quite subtle - and compliments the limey flavour fom the healthy dose of Motueka hops.
I thought it might go well with a curry

looking forward to hearing what you think - enjoy the judging :

Seriously if this is the Kevik beer it is really quite good [emoji1303]

Can I enter with a overnight mashed neipa

 

[stigman]

I'm not sure if overnight mash counts as experimental Chris, but I love NEIPA's and you could save on the postage I work in denton most days as a sparky how freaky is that, I've got a NEIPA ready at the moment how do you fancy a swap?

 

[Hoddy]

It's better with the kevik IMO.

Don't think you had one of the non-kviek batch - I prefer it as the kviek yeast was dominating the flavours a bit in V1.
