What are you drinking tonight 2020.

[Hazelwood Brewery]

It’s the weekend so the brakes are off!

Starting with “Punky”, an IPA based on the Punk IPA recipe published by Brewdog on their website.

Last couple of pints in the keg so not at it’s best now but no need to panic, I have another conditioning - should be ready in an hour

Some more of my BYO Yorkshire Bitter. Might follow that up with some Beerworks Southern Gold Digger.

I’d quite like a couple of those!

Was in my local pub and they had Greene King Low & Behold pale Ale(2.8%) now normally I avoid Greene King but decided to give it a go. It was not terrible a little thin but it had a fairly nice taste to it was otherwise forgettable, but still for a low APA to be mediocre is actually pretty damm good.

I moved onto Exeter Brewery Fraid Not. I had previously had their Country Best and Fall’s Over both of which where pretty good so was fairly optimistic, this was described as an English Bitter and well it is a pretty solid bitter at 4% it isn’t too strong although not really a true session beer in my view. Good flavour not too thin easy drinking nothing special but a good solid beer,

Now rounding it off at home with a glass of Lyme Bay Christmas Mead it is a little dryer than a lot of their mead and I’m afraid that the cinnamon in my view is a little over powering. It’s not bad but I’m probably not going to buy another bottle if it goes on sale this year.

Had a few homies last night and ended up a bit sh1tters. As a result, I just couldn't be ar$ed with work today so took a halfer, went to the pub for some pizza and pints, back to mine for some quite tasty mosaic pale ale and The Kernel imp brown stout clone (very close to the original IMO) and still on it after just making a single hop (el dorado) IPA. It's a tough life, innit!

Guess who's picking up the youngest tonight? No drinks before that

When I saw you’d posted I was hoping it was to tell us about your breakfast beer! Happy February anyway!

Had a few cans of Sierra Nevada's California IPA last night. Think it's the best session IPA I have had so far.

Just kegged my session bitter which came in at 3.8% as you do when you bottle or keg I took a half pint glass to, see how it’s doing. Nice dark colour with the crystal giving it a really nice flavour, not perfect however looking forward to this in a few weeks once it’s had time to carb up and condition.

 

[cossie.j]

Just kegged an American amber which is a fantastic beer, nice and hoppy but not too much for me.
Tonight I’m drinking my west street steam pilsner. Another all grain recipe purchased from the Malt Miller, wasn’t convinced with this when it was fermenting? However 4 weeks conditioning...... and it’s actually very very tasty

 

[Dave 666]

More of my Beerworks Southern Gold Digger. Somewhat clearer in the pour now I have a steady serving pressure!.

 

[Sandimas]

A no-idea-how-bitter Cascade bitter: my home-grown Cascade hops (so no idea of the exact IBU), 10% Crystal and 4 additions of Cascade inc a dry hop. Very nice!
