What are you drinking tonight 2020.

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Is someone bored during lockdown?

Reminds me of the text SWMBO had the other day from a friend genuinely suggesting that, if looking for things to do, now would be a good time to check that our main stop-cock works correctly...

Of course, she informed them that she had stopped all of that sort of thing years ago!

Not any more

Mind you, you *really* don’t want to be messing with the stop-cock at a time like this!

Big Smoke Brew Co, Medicine Man a 6% IPA hopped with Amarillo, Simcoe & Chinook, this is a nice hoppy pale ale, lots of good flavour basically exactly what you want for a IPA. I had a porter from them a few days ago which, was also pretty damm good, overall one I will happily pick up a few cans of if I see it.

Exactly! My reaction was to say to reply with 'we have turned it off and now it won't turn on again and we have no water' or '...we have a big flood' and see what the reaction was

Sounds like you have the situation under control, Captain!

 

[Clint]

...I seem to be getting out of control lately. Buying beer is a nightmare.

A Wilkos golden ale (old kit brewed 6 months ago) dry hopped with Cascade and a little Amarillo. It's cleared nicely and has mellowed a bit.

Ensuring no brewery waste in these uncertain times, I've blended tonight. Used the remains of a decanted starter, a scorched Vienna Lager, and a brown ale, in 2:2:1 proportions. It's drinkable, just. Keeps me off the bottles of APA until they're ready

 

[Clint]

Genius!

Cushy I just did this bud light with a splash of the velvet stout the stout hits on the back end

Jesus....

Having some of my dodgy, murky Belgian ale whilst I destroy/make stuff in the garden. It's not actually that bad now, smells of coins according to the wife.
