Last couple bottles of the Nog today. stashed one away to try in a few months I'm planning to move to AG in the next month or so but this is a kit I would make again a cracking drink for anyone considering making it.

What kit is it. Friend was thinking about starting brewing. He asked me to recommend a kit.

Where do the clouds end and the head start

Where do the clouds end and the head start

The beer inspired the clouds to gather above the head

A pint of my English Bitter next. I’m going to get another of these on the go on Wednesday I think.

It is! You just need to capture a photo of a bad-ass lightning strike on your glass

Trying @dan125 west coast IPA.
This is really nice Dan, nice body to it.
Not sure on the hops, it's got pine, citrus and to me a bit of Mellon.
Carbonation is spot on, I would happily order another. Easy drinking for 6.5%
Thanks for the beer

Was that the beer that won the monthly competition

Stout Sunday’s Nicely balanced, not too sweet and has a lovely roast to it.

Your spot on there
I took the daughter out on a driving lesson we went from having to open a window when the sun was shining in the window to having to turn the heater on when we went round the corner.

Nah, that was the previous WCIPA.
Should have a NEIPA ready for next month's comp if all goes to plan though.

I will post your beer tomorrow, do you fancy a doppelbock or a black IPA.

Today’s warm up is curtesy of @dave_77 and his Belgian Pale at 4.6%

You can see the ale is well carbonated, golden in colour, and crystal clear. The nice fluffy white head stuck around to the end.

The aroma is quite familiar. There’s a citrus aroma, some spice, and to me there’s a hint of white wine. I’m not really getting Belgian esters but the beer is cold. The aroma is actually reminiscent of my Goofie Saison flavoured with orange peel and Nelson Sauvin hops though I see from the label this beer has Cashmere and EKG. What do I know? Not much it seems

The flavour also reminds me of my Goofie Saison and definitely has spice, citrus, a hint of white wine and something a little woody - puts me in mind of joss sticks but in a good way!

It’s another nice clean enjoyable ale Dave and again one I’d be happy to drink all afternoon if I had another half dozen. Thanks very much.

Just before signing off, what yeast did you use with this?

Glad you enjoyed
It was WLP 510 Bastogne Belgian Ale.
