What are you drinking tonight 2020.

[Fuzzy Growler]

I've started with this one. It's fine but rather forgettable.

Had this last night, wasn't impressed either

First beer of the night is my new American Amber with Columbus & Citra.
Think the next few beers after this are going to be a little stronger and darker

 

[Fuzzy Growler]

Wife's on homebrew Raspberry Berliner wiesse

Not long until the great British BIPA brew off tasting session. Just polishing my drinking glass, trimming my cigars and pressing my drinking trousers.

Hope @Hoddy @dan125 And @dave_77 are ready.

First taste of this years apple and pear wine, finished about 10.5%.
Dry but with residual fruity sweetness I made this to drink young, bottled half and left half to mature in demi johns for comparison. Thought the pear might get lost but is well balanced with sweet Worcesters and tart Bramleys.

Money comes to mind

Ha ha yes partly but as it's more viscous it goes down in a sort of slick but then fills one up. Off topic a bit but this reminds me of a Crown Court Judge's endorsement of real ale at Stafford about 47 years ago. Before sentencing a group of young burglars whose only mitigation was that they had drunk industrial amounts of lager he encouraged them to drink proper beer as they would drink less of it!

Having a La Trappe Tripel tonight, I haven’t had a Tripel in quite some time and I‘m really enjoying it.

Are you doing this over zoom. Are you taking notes. I would be very interested to see how you rate each beer. Just to see how it compares to my notes

Similar to zoom.. No notes, just pure piss up and beer char.

 

[LesTom]

A good stout from Windswept, although I prefer my stouts a bit more bitter than this

Good stuff the 4 black IPAs are done.

If you want I can message you I will give my opinion without giving you a score. I still have two to judge tomorrow

Reached the boil stage of my brewday which means I can crack a brew without having to worry about fudging things up....

First sample of my Russian imperial stout, two weeks in the bottle.

This is going to be a beauty in a few months time. At 9% it's boozy but not harsh. It's got a nice roasty, chocolate, dark fruity aroma and taste. Quite bitter, but not too much so, and I plan to age this so that'll mellow out. I'd call that a success!

 

[Rodcx500z]

One I made earlier pale ale with cascade and amarillo

 

[obscure]

Summer Breeze

While I kind of screwed up on this (I over adjusted for my low efficiency) leaving me with a six percent beer I am non the less rather enjoying it.

A four year old bottle of my Westy XII clone from the back of the shed, it has aged really well.

Most of us struggle to make our beer last four weeks!

My dipa that seems to be getting better with time? Wonder if that's the metabisulphite affect? Not sure how that is happening, it's like pineapples and grapefruit.
