What are you drinking 2024.

[SMP Brewery]

What a load of sh1te. The football not the beer.

Edit

 

[Mash Monster]

A couple of pints of my Guinness clone to steady the nerves

 

[micklupulo]

Now a Budweiser Budvar. Nice but just out of the fridge is a bit too cold though

the upside is that it will slow me down!

Back from a week in east Lindsey Lincolnshire, had a great time, kegged this earlier 2 weeks in the fermenter tropical England pale ale, got 3L that need drinking

Hot tub beers

One for @531Man.
Seemed like the right choice for dinner tonight. A simple fare; new potatoes from the garden, 1/2 salmon side in the air fryer, samphire sauted in tarragon butter (tarragon also from the garden).
Surprisingly light but loaded with flavour, dark cherry, blackberry and peppery spice. Great structure with a long finish. Worth every penny of the price tag. And, I’ve got a couple more bottles to look forward to as well.

Here's an interesting lot today:-

Trooper at Spoon's

Then a lovely Saison at the local bottle shop - Saison Le Pertemps by Burning Sky

Then a sensational brown ale with coffee and maple syrup notes - fantastic

And finished up with a lovely DIPA by Left Handed Giant - Colour Me In

 

[hop-a-long]

Right, that's Turkey done for. Next up: England.

But first this Belgian Bacchus cherry......

Worthington's e was one pint I just didn't like for some reason. I think it was the aftertaste.

I had tried Worthington E from a bottle years ago when the yeast could be harvested from the bottle. It was a nice drink then. Last time I was in the UK I bought one knowing it was going to disappoint and it did it was served from a keg through a frozen flooded font!
The recipe for Manchester Bitter which supposedly is a clone of the early Boddingtons is in the current BYO provided by the brewer of Marble Beers brewery. Described in the article as 'a love letter to Boddingtons Bitter' I think the hops will make it a bit different from a real Boddingtons but.

First off the dregs of Poes Boston Bitter (love this one) bottled 51 long necks and 2 500ml bottles.

Next an older Poes Boston Bitter 8 weeks almost in the bottle.

Surprise of the day, Fullers London Pride clone. Very promising even at 12 days in the bottle good malt flavour well balanced with the hops.

Tropical England lovely

 

[LesTom]

Trying my go at a Hoegaarden clone. I used Mandarina Bavaria hops in the place of bitter orange and it's turned out pretty good. I poured an original Hoegaarden as a control beer to directly compare it to my own version.

 

[Stu's Brews]

Beers this evening have been accompanied by food that has been cooked using them. First up, Belgian Dubbel with Flemish Beef Stew. Followed by, Imperial Stout with a slab of Imperial Stout Brownie.

 

[Rodcx500z]

Yes this is good

 

[Stu]

Probably not really a Sunday evening beer, but what the hell. This is much better fresh.

My local breweries special is called Pupa.

Once a year,they turn it into a ridiculously juicy DIPA Supa Pupa

The wife said the smell makes her want to barf

 

[RichK]

Nearby Lidl finally had some of these in stock Czech brewed if you've missed it. Though I think I still prefer Urquell.

 

[Caramel Ox]

A greene king, although this was better in keg than can.

 

[micklupulo]

Had this earlier. Anyone visiting the Black Country area would be wise to seek out Holdens or Bathams pubs. This one is just a little sweet so well chilled is better.

Edit

But at least England now have a crew that can successfully take penalties.
That's progress.
Leaves plenty of beer time before penalty time!
