What are you drinking tonight 2020.

[obscure]

Waiting is such a chore! My stout is only ONE week conditioned and I’m already several pints down.

I’d favour a milk stout or maybe even a brown ale. I like beers in the 4% - 6% range but I’m guessing you also like a higher strength if you like imperial. With summer coming a nice IPA or saison might also be good. I’ve even got a lager on the go, unheard of for me!

Go with whatever you most love.

I’m mostly a session beer drinker, bitters, milds etc. But every now and then a high abv Imperial or Barley Wine really hits the spot. Their are a couple of pubs in Oxford which do some excellent beers on tap, which I tend to frequent when my train home is running late (or so I claim). Just hope that they will survive this and be able to reopen in the coming weeks and months.

It’s going to be another of those days isn’t it. Come on guys, don’t make me look a p155 head!

My only problem is when I get on it I forget to take pictures.

The mad cow stout sounds good I bottled an imperial stout during the week. It came in at 8.2%. I need to get the finger out and start kegging

If you're two ever meet up for a smaller in the Taphouse just give me a shout. I'd be interested to pick your brains.

First beer of the week, a stout.

I’ll be getting a plum porter started this weekend (should last longer as my daughter can’t get at it!) and I’m trying a different plum flavouring so giving it a go in my stout.

This is what I’m trying, got it from Amazon and six drops is enough to flavour a pint of stout so maybe five will be enough in a porter - apparently the bottle holds 800 drops.

Because this is a milk stout it’s hard to be sure but I do think the flavour is far more like Titanic plum porter than the flavour I got from Uncle Roy’s plum essence. Uncle Roy’s to me has an intense aroma but the flavour is a bit off.

I would definitely be up that.

I’ve just found half a dozen bottles of the Dubbel I brewed about 2 and a half years ago and didn’t like very much. It’s actually mellowed pretty nicely. Still has a bit of a strong alcohol aftertaste but the over-bittering has sorted itself out.
