Where I grew up - Buxton, not the brewery (mores the pity!).
Dunkleweizen, bottled 3 weeks ago. Tastes great, needs another 1-2 weeks conditioning for head retention.

The brewery tap is great, me and the wifey went last year and the red willow brewery tap was great too, lovely place

Happy birthday mateCelebrating my birthday with the first of my current batch of Weissbier - 13 days grain to glass and it's a great pintView attachment 26093
Plus my good lady has bought me some Hazy Jane, Elvis Juice and a selection of lagers
Pretty good colour match there. I bet it was a pleasant nap after those two.

Bought some Buxton brewery beer at Knutsford street market for £2.95 which was ok but not great. But I do miss this market and the Northwich one.

I’m half way through a brew at the moment so a drink will have to wait for a while. 
Oh, go on then! Cardamom Saison.

Haha I was drinking and brewing yesterday. Started cooling my brew and realised I'd missed the final 5 min addition of hops! Chucked it in as a whirlpool addition instead, it'll still be beer.

Corny kegged this MJ single hop Simcoe APA yesterday and carbed it overnight at 30psi and it's bloody lovely, with 50g extra Simcoe dry hopped.

well in that case, im kicking off the evening with a pale ale that @samale sent me.
looks like a pale ale right out of the bottle has a slight haze and is quite bubbly.
i get a strong lemon lime aroma right initially. with a hints of spice, pine and floral. as it warms up the i get light sweet roll and malt.
at first sip its very light bodied and quite bubbly. then a strong piney hop flavor with a heavy bitterness that lingers for a while. very little in the way of malt, its there but at 4% its definitely in the background i would imagine there is very little crystal malt in there and is probably just pale ale malt or pilsner. it does raise its hand at the end saying notice me. yeast is a very clean one, and i dont notice it at all.
this is a solid easy drinking pale ale with a hoppy kick. i could easily drink 2 or 3 pints of this at a pub stop in the middle of a long bike ride. quite refreshing, solid job samale!
he said there is sorachi ace in this which i have never had. i am trying to pick it out and think thats whats giving it the unique piney floral taste. the description is on the tip of my tongue but i cant seem to place it right now.
edit: dill! just did some research on sorachi ace and thats exactly it. its very light though and you have to search for it.
