What are you drinking tonight 2020.

[strange-steve]

I can relate to that. Do you use the calculator on the site. I have a Belgian IPA which is well over.

Yeah the Brewer's Friend calculator. Getting carbonation right has always been a bit hit and miss for me.

I noticed a big difference between beers that I have cold crashed/layered compared to ambient temperature. I have also noticed a difference between yeasts. My Belgian IPA with T58 is well over yet I only went 2 vols were my Munich dunkel is under when I went 2.5 vols.
Life's not easy

I know most of these beers and of course I know they are good. The two on the outsides are not known to me so these will give me a new experience.

From left to right i'd place them... 5,3,2,1,4,6 - but they are all good

Drinking a coldish bitter tonight, rewarding a well earned thirst, spent half the day cutting back next door neighbours shrubs. She's madder than a cut snake but still has a great sense of humour.

took a gravity sample of @Hazelwood Brewery summer breeze, wow this one is delicious even pre-dry hop. although I seem to be unaffected with his clearing problems.

Did you use a Campden tablet a least?

My hoppy selection for the weekend. Not too much pressure on @stigman who provided the middle one!

Deya, verdant and pollys I feel like an FA cup minow playing the big boys at wembley. Probably Stand up better against brewdog or bevertown.

Cracked open my GH bible DDH Pale Ale. Looks the part, smells the part and most importantly tastes the part. Head died away quite quickly but think that will improve with a bit of time (only 2 weeks in bottle). Absolutely luvverly. All that oxidation worry for nothing! Substituted the yeast to Lallemand Verdant and definitely think it brings something to the party

Is it 5 o clock yet???????

Poured ready (I may have had a sip?)...

close enough! Vienna centennial ipa in hand

Finishing the last couple of pints of my Summer Breeze ale because I have another batch ready to keg. 5.2%

Starting the weekend off with a bang.

Of Juice No.04 by Three Hills Brewing 9% DIPA

Smells very sweet like candy when poured, and tastes the same. A little too sweet I'd say, but quite nice with a slight earthy hoppy dankness. Strong alcohol taste due to the strength, but not in a harsh way.

Sure it's posted here pennine's brewdays

One change would be to add a centennial dry hop the aroma is weak.

I can't wait to get that one bottled up, and I still need to dry hop it. Will probably do a 25/25 gram dry hop split with citra and galaxy.

Good thing I have a citra mosaic ekuanot pale ready to bottle. Speaking of which I think you should try using the llalemand east coast yeast on this recipe. Or I will when I get some more galaxy and citra at some point. It should compliment the hops better than 05.

Cracked open the Adnams Broadside cask this evening. All in a good cause to try and cultivate a yeast starter. I have to say sampling the first pint that I far prefer the bottled version, which surprises me but then that makes me happier to try and clone that version.
