It's REALLY easy to make (even easier than invert syrup). You just need a bag of table sugar and a quater of a lemon. So possibly even more economical than buying it by the gallon

I took a gravity sample for for this today and had a taste of course - Wow! Flavours of honey and pinapple nothing strong but nice an mellow. Think this might shape up to be the best beer I've brewed for a while. If I dont cock it up by being inpatient. It seems to have hit it's FG target (2 points higher but I think that might have been because of an over pitch). So another week in the FV to clean up, make sure I use a bottleing bucket instead of batch priming in the primary. Then packaging and two weeks at least, conditioning.

The Gales yeast when treated right really is special :)
 
Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh:nono:

Some of those 1970's brown ones with the Y and waist band in a cream colour :lol:

I hadn't realised that the canal was filled in,nor that Burgess park sits on what was the basin.
Hope the bitter turns out better than what the canal water was:lol::lol:
 
Huh, I used to live in those parts (down near the common). I used to run along that path and never knew it used to be a canal. Sounds like a nice beer.

Here's hoping.

There's a little 'historic plague' on the park gate that states there were many pubs in the area around where the park is, and because of this there was a lock up/drunk tank nearby to cope with all the inebriates :lol:

Just asked my wife if she can remember the canal system and what was Burgess Park prior to it becoming that,she can't though.She's an Old Kent Road gal:).
Anyway we digress.Let us know how it comes out.Have my last attempt at a 'decent' bitter in the FV using CML ale yeast. If not up to much then i really must follow your advice re culturing from bottles.
