What are you drinking 2024.

One beer which I will be pleased when it's gone. Baltic Porter, said the same thing last time I made it.
The other is my Foreign Extra Stout, another stout in the planning so happy with my stouts.

Another session beer from the box - it’s a golden ale really, balanced hop and malt. Good body but almost no head. More interesting than yesterday’s but the overall flavour is a bit weird.

I've had a few of their fiftytwo north in mini kegs from Woodforde's and thought they were ok, more modern and hoppy than their core range

Having a Brewdog stout, had high expectations. It goes down easy, it's very good, I'd still prefer a Guinness, but only just.

The bier box subscription is officially dead and they have refunded 2/3 of the voucher.

So here’s the first of my beer52 box. Full of very interesting stuff which is a good start. Comes with a magazine about the brewers but no tasting guide?

Outlier Aprichy. Claimed as a weizen doppelbock but only 5.2% so not really. Head very impressive, darker than expected. The flavour strength makes it a sipper rather than the booze. Aroma is inviting.

Overall taste is weird the cinnamon is prominent but has no bite. Feels more like a gimmick.

Version 1 Helles. Nice.

Belgian pale for me

A Saison from the tap which I am not too keen on, plus an imperial stout. The imperial was brewed along time ago using a Saison yeast. It's very light on body but still very nice

Went out to the pub for lunch today and thoroughly enjoyed a pint of TT Landlord.

I’ll be at homebrew club tonight so not on-line. Tonight I’m taking the four AF beers I’ve picked out for a conversation about AF beers, don’t tell them! I won’t be surprised if they kick me out!

Happy Friday guys!

This was a supermarket delivery substitute but I have to say it's delicious!

 

[micklupulo]

I can't claim that this part grain part extract bitter of mine is nectar but it stands up well to many commercial beers so who cares? Cheers it's Friday!

 

[Donegal john]

Not my usual tipple but seen this festbeir reduced so have it a go 5.8% the colour of lucozade and no head after the initial pour but it’s not bad at all. Smells like a can of Steiger from the 90’s though.

 

[Chippy_Tea]

Happy Friday.

Starting the night with one of my go to beers Old Peculier and then onto something i have never tried before -

 

[micklupulo]

Now a 440 cl present from the Lake District at garage temperature. I have just realised that a 500 cl bottle of home brew net of sediment equates to the volume of this can so I am drinking less than I thought!

Something different for Me

Another one to try

Another beer52.

So cherry, lactose and vanilla…none of which have made it as far as the printed ingredients list.

Aroma is strong cherry which is nice. Flavour has the problem of being weird again. There is chocolate there but it comes later in the finish, initially it’s sort of bitter metallic cherry. No real body.

 

[Tanglefoot]

Nearly at the end of this Amber ale I kegged in November, has to be up there as my favourite style.
Maris Otter, Munich, Cara and Crystal malts with Northern brewer to bitter
and Cascade late boil, hopstand and dry hop.
I also do a similar brew with lower EBC and MJ54 as a Cali Common which is
a bit of a staple.

Looks well, My last attempt was on the sweet side which I didn't enjoy. Well I still finished the keg

Had the same beers from the dark beer box. Not too many from it were great.

 

[Donegal john]

Haven’t had one of these in years. Beautifully creamy and more coffee than Guinness slightly more bitter as well.

How was this and the last one ? Tried them before and wasn’t impressed
