A very easy drinking traditional IPA

Very nice it is
 
Pennine said:
sad day today, trying out hazelwoods cardamon saison and it poured out flat...

however I still drank it and it was quite delicious. has a very nice saison spice in the aroma. flavour is spicey and fruity, kind of an orange, lemon and mango fruitiness. surprisingly malty as well which is likely due to the lack of carbonation. I don't really know what cardamon tastes like but there is something uniquely spice like there. overall it is really good even flat, but I could imagine it was spectacular with carbonation. Sometimes you eat the bear and well sometimes the bear eats you.

I’ll bottle up another for you and make sure it’s carbonated.

A couple of cans of Lidl's Perlenbacher lager for me. It isn't too bad actually.
 
Hello, This is noob brewer checking in....LOL

I think I've done OK....

I normally put my sugar in the bottle before filling but this time I thought "why not bottle" and then add sugar...

So bottled all 42 bottles (I like to get the dregs!)

and then went to get the sugar. DAM! I didn't get any did I....

massive dilemma,.....shall i go to the shops and get some but my beer needs bottling ASAP!

So, balls, I used a scoop full of brewing sugar......

yes I'm a noob...seemed to work out ok though....

Oh and this is the batch that I added 1.5kg sugar, kind of wishing I hadn't now...lol

****** off 2 pints...

Love the SNPA but will be first for the Innis and Gun for me. Already a Smithwicks red ale and a Jaipur pale ale. The Smithwicks is an easy drinking red ale though first for the jaipur but did think there is a slight dry spicy hit with some Rye. Have a few more in the fridge to sample..
 
Got a HB Tripel. Proud of it. You gotta be, right? If you make your own beer, you're a little proud.
In any case, does anyone here have an accurate means of measuring high-ABV beer? I tried to get an answer on the sister-site and have come up with nothing so far--not that someone won't eventually come through. I totally appreciate the beer community in the UK and the US. Cheers. No, I'm not running for any political office, that's just how I talk.
Now, what you've been waiting for, an average photo of home brew! That blurry photo of the house across the street was built in '48 like mine was though my house is way fancier (it's not) .
