What are you drinking tonight 2020.

[Wysh]

Tonight? Well I'm sure it's tonight somewhere.

The first of the Young's Harvest Lager! No head unfortunately but tastes ok

 

[Kinneuchar]

First tasting of my mango hibiscus.

Amazing, and I don't even like sour beers. View attachment 27645

Looks great! I'm starting to get a taste for sours and I know my son likes them too, so if you wouldn't mind sharing your recipe I'd like to have a bash at it.

Despite saying on my brewday posts that it isn’t quite ready yet I’m having a pint of my Summer Breeze (Citra/Galaxy IPA, 4.8%). My own beers have been missing from this thread for far too long.

The orangey colour is because the sun is shining through it, it isn’t actually that colour.

Ready for the weekend

Thanks Fuzzy. It is nice but really needs another couple of weeks to reach it’s best. Clearly I can’t wait that long, just hoping it will LAST that long!

What strength is it?

 

[Banbeer]

A pint or two of my AG (Falconer's Flight) IPA, rather nice.

 

[pilgrimhudd]

An exmoor gold, it's been a long day and I need it.

What strength is it?

Around 7.1 I believe OG was 1.060 FG was 1.014

5l batch
900g Maris Otter
200g wheat
100g carared

1g Chinook @60 mins
3g Chinook @10
5g El Dorado @10
5g Mosaic @5

US West Coast yeast

Ferment for 2 weeks and transfer to secondary vessel with 2 pureed mangoes for another week. Then dry hop with 2g Chinook, 10g El Dorado, and 10g Mosaic for a week, and 100g hibiscus for 3 days.

That was the planned recipe anyway, I had an explosion when some of the mango clogged the airlock so I lost quite a bit and had to add more mango. I'm not entirely sure how it would have turned out originally, but the end result is good enough for me. I'd maybe add another mango to get the flavour coming through more, but I'm not sure how much I lost.

 

[Pennine]

drinking my flanders brown, the sourness is really meshing and the carbonation is just perfect. this was not intended to be a flander brown, sometimes ****** up brewdays work out after all.

Around 7.1 I believe OG was 1.060 FG was 1.014

Hi Chris,

abv = (OG - FG) x 131.25

(1.060-1.014) x 131.25 = 6%

Still strong

 

[ChrisD123]

Cheers hazelwood….still new to this brewing game....only my second brew on the Bulldog....is that calculation standard for working out the strength as I used the GH book for working out ABV
