What are you drinking tonight 2020.

Punk ipa(original recipe) clone (with extra dry hops).
This was one of two test bottles (rest is kegged). Pretty pleased with it although its not as punchy as I'd hoped. I'd primed with brown sugar(don't ask..) which added a wee bit of extra dimension to it.

It's amazing how many posts are people drinking bought beers.

I bought a load of Fischer in France at €1.47 for 750ml of beer and a swing-top bottle.

That was worth it but since then "Meh!" I understand the sentiment!

Research!

Went out last night for a meal. The food and company were great but the beer selection was uninspiring, Tribute, Proper Job, and Green King IPA.

Not sure I would go that far! I settled on Tribute. Not so long back I’d have been happy if a pub had ANY ales on.

Right now, my Trinity brown ale while cooking a habanero chilli. What Sundays are all about. Can’t wait!

A bottle of Hook Norton Double Stout a really nice beer good distinctive flavour and not too strong.

Tasting my coffee breakfast stout. Yum.

Just opened up the second 5L mini growler of my Yorkshire Bitter, the, extra time in the keg compared to the previous one has made a difference, it has a nice malt taste with just the hint of bitterness, more importantly it has lost the slight residual sweetness that the previous keg had (possibility all the priming sugar hadn’t fermented out) making for a much better beer, and reminds me why I brew session bitters.

Give a few weeks for the coffee to settle and it will be bang on the money. Had a can of a Polly breakfast stout and I preferred mine.

A bottle of my american pale ale and my first bottle of my user upper best bitter

 

[marshbrewer]

A few pints of Bateman's down the pub, then back and had a couple of pints of my Kentucky Common. Which, if I am brutally honest, is pants, and I won't be brewing again. lol

After a day driving SWMBO to a dental appointment and a hairdresser I got home just in time to listen to Boris drone on with some of the most impractical advice I have ever heard! Most of it was a series of "WTF is he on about?" moments that culminated in being told that my wife and I are "vulnerable" by over seven years!

This was after an experienced Doctor had pointed out that a fit 70 year old would be less likely to be "vulnerable" than a 50 years old overweight and out of condition smoker! (A 77 year old, ex-policeman, schoolmate of mine finished a half-marathon last Saturday! I just can't picture Jim being "vulnerable" somehow! )

However, what topped the lot was Boris's plea that "engineering companies" switched over to producing "ventilators"! The thought that anyone could be placed on a Ventilator made by JCB (a company that happens to be one of the biggest Conservative Party supporters in the UK) is risible. Boris's idea has been shot down by almost anyone who knows anything about production lines and engineering, never mind how to manufacture "Respirators"!

Here's my photographic proof. It shows my first pint of Wilko Hoppy Copper Bitter in front of a TV on which Boris is explaining his "plans". I think the phrase is "I wouldn't pay them in washers!"

I took great heart from your "six week off work" comment because I usually shrug things off like this reasonably quickly and six weeks seemed a long time to me! (Idiot that I am! )

Today was great! I wrestled myself into the car (an automatic), spent an hour driving to Skegness so that SWMBO could visit her dentist and hairdresser, walked about half a mile to a restaurant and back for lunch and then drove the hour back home before getting stuck into the Bitter!

Tonight I feel okay whereas I expected to be as stiff as a plank so "Thanks for the advice!"

On the wonky bob v2 bitter its nice and will get better
