My plum porter - before my daughter drinks the bloody lot!
 
athumb.. athumb..

I loved the comment "It smells like beer!" :laugh8: :laugh8:

I hope you never get to know the feelings of sorrow, frustration and remorse when it doesn't! aheadbutt
 
F86k me I’ve just been mugged by the fruit ninja what a €uck1g ride on beer heaven. Get this Boston brewed beer if you can.

Ok this is one hell of a beer balanced full on haze hopped craziness Super Wow indeed. My new fave beer !
 
I kind of have a 'feeling' about mild (in its many guises in history) - it's a working man's drink that was brewed in bulk to be enjoyed in bulk. So I want to perfect it using simple methods that sort of fit with that feeling. Don't get me wrong, it isn't that I think is should be rubbish or substandard, but fantastic in its simplicity. If I was brewing something a bit more grand, or fancy, like an imperial whatnot or something, then if happily embrace cold steeping but I just don't think it suits the style. It's probably a daft theory, but that's the great thing about home-brewing, you get to be the mad eccentric owner of your own brewery (but without putting a while workforce's livelihoods at risk!) acheers.
Can't stop thinking about Mild ale now so, have got to jump the queue of my planned beers, I don't like the astringency roasted grains bring to an ale, though it does fade with time.
I will brew a pre 1950's mild which were generally made without the roast grains and do a 2 week grain to glass brew.
 
Picked up one of these earlier reduced to clear in Tesco. Not half bad, the brett is subtle enough that it wouldn't put off the average beer drinker, adding a nice fruitiness and just a hint of funk.

Best not mention that I'm on the house mild again tonight, then! Yum yum yum.
 
..80's...it was the latter,..beer was probably better in the 1800's.
As for tonight...the fence panels have been installed...it was a treat to see Mrs Clint lift those panels...she doesn't muck about!
Beer...my Not Tribute pale, Eldorado and Mosaic...all very nice.
 
Tonight I will mostly be drinking wine - I know!

I do have an excuse though, my wife and I are going out for a meal to a nice manor house restaurant and will have the tasting menu with matching wines.

I’ll pick up the beers when we get home again. clapa
 
Tonight I'm cooking a romantic chicken tikka jalfrezi... romantic you ask? Because I love it! Mrs Clint doesn't so it suits me.
Drinks...I picked up a Brewdog Duopolis to try and I'm raiding my Beerwulf delivery...
