What are you drinking tonight 2020.

Boil started, so a celebration

Pre boil volume and gravity exactly as planned so that must deserve a beer.

Same cap on one of bottles tonight. An octogenarian friend dropped off one of his favourite beers to celebrate his birthday. This guy is a legend. He was out running 6 miles this afternoon!

First time I've had this one. Strikes a great balance between malt and grassy and earthy hops (Mittelfruh & Saaz?) with peppery spice.

Among the warm up act was my Tribute Tribute. Finished with a GH Kölsch to compare with the Edelstof Helles. Kölsch was much more floral and simpler malt.

February's cream Ale. Amarillo kind of dominates the flavor. I'll use less next time.

Amarillo is a really flavoursome hop, you only need half of what you think. It does fade but takes a long time. If you can give it another month the beers might have mellowed a little.

It's mellowed already. After three weeks in the bottle it was not enjoyable to drink. It's a lot better now. Just wish it hadn't overshadowed the grain flavor.

My st.peters ruby red ale,my reward for bottling my coopers irish stout, still not completely satisfied with the ruby red it's got a twang about it I'm not sure about.

Spoilt for choice.....

All these labelled beer 12 for £15 - REALLY I erm bought £45 worth

Hells teeth i'd only just bought 16 Belgian beers for £46 on Sunday - C'est la vie.

I’m starting with one of these while I bottle some ales for comps and swaps.



It’s OK but I’m barely enjoying it. It came in a mixed box, I don’t think I would ever buy it on it’s own merit.

I want @dad_of_jon ’s selection!
