What are you drinking tonight 2020.

[SamBrewster]

I enjoyed the Fake Empire so decided to have my attempt at a hazy - Radioactive Waste brewed in lockdown 1. A bit old now so the aroma has gone, jumps out of the bottle when opened, but taste of Soarchi Ace followed by the kick of cayenne is very good. Not usually a fan of SA so this was a use up but it works...

I’m joining you with your Citra/Mosaic DIPA. The carbonation is fine despite not forming a frothy head (I think you said it was keg conditioned?). Very fruity aroma and flavour which is also a bit pithy from the hefty hoppage! Quite assertive bitterness probably also driven by the big hop additions. A little sweet malt at the end. I enjoyed it but yes, it’s gone

Glad you enjoyed it and yes it had a decent bittering addition, more than unusually do fprnthe style, but it plays well with the overall hoppiness I think. I forced carbed it in the keg. Did you by chance get any sulphur from it?

Decided to try this brew named in honour of our dog as she was beside me when I was figuring out what hops to use. It ended up with Columbus hops for the bittering and Styrian Goldings for the dry hops it's pretty good

No, I didn’t. It did go down quite quickly though

Phew, it's thirsty work arguing with the admin so it's espresso martini time again! I made one each for me and the wife "forgetting" that she doesn't like it, so I get the credit and two drinks

 

[Mrhandsome]

Does that involve drinking everything in the fridge ?

I hope not, it's a big American style fridge. I'd die.

I'd somehow managed to commandeer two and a half shelves for beer. Got about 4 cans left before I can fit my fermenter in

Probably finishing with a pint of my sweet stout.

Northern monkey Citra IPA.... No sign of the Citra, just Malty bland but drinkable, it's a shame because I've had a few nice ones from these guys

It’s not your night Maybe give up and try again tomorrow!

Door 10 - 500ml of foreign extra stout @7.5% with maple syrup, cinnamon and hazelnut.
Thank goodness the cinnamon is almost undetectable but it still tastes like its been dosed with artificial flavour extracts
Would have preferred the plain stout tbh

I have been re-acquainting myself with a few so called strong beers on offer from Tesco at the mo. They are all fairly similar but in order of preference.
- 1698 (I've passed on the free yeast)
- King Goblin and Old Peculiar (slightly different but about the same ranking)
- Adnams Broadside (which I am drinking at the moment but won't be getting any more)
Anyone else been doing the same and if so how would you rank them, given we are all diiferent?

I'd buy all of them except OP and i'd substitute that with 1845
