What are you drinking tonight 2021?

[dave_77]

I'm glad you enjoyed the Timothy Taylor Landlord clone @dave_77 . I still think it's not quite ready yet, still a little fruitier than it should be, but it's getting there.
So my bottling technique from the keg probably needs a bit of practice, but I'm glad it wasn't too carbonated.

I think the Saison is a better beer.

Sorry...yes landlord...I have had that more recently . The saison is a little stronger, trying to pick the right moment to have that one..

Another bottle of Orval..

Finishing the night with an hazy citra and simcoe pale.

I will drink to that. Good shift put in today in the garden. Had a few Neipa to easy the way. Now on to my last bottle of doppelbock
This won the monthly competition and I have to say it's really good. Definitely something I will brew again.

That was a good beer.
Why have you a fake boob on the table beside you ?

 

[Donegal john]

Having a stout now after drinking the fridge beers and everyone else including the dog are in bed. Love this stout. Need to get a bigger glass though

Very early sample of my Webster's Yorkshire Bitter clone (cheers to Dave Line).

Not a bad low gravity bitter, and my first time using Bramling Cross. I could convince myself this is pretty close to my regular tipple in the 80s.

Another Summer Breeze. I have one in the fermenter but I think I’ll brew another in the next batch of 4 beers. I might also brew a Summer Breeze Next Generation.

Yep. Been practicing my words all day. And it’s a real book with a story and all with NO pictures. But it’s not a cook book like yours I’m a long way off that

 

[samale]

Belgian single for me. Mixed bag regards carbonation. This one is spot on

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Next generation...any previews?

This will have more oats (Naked Golden), will have another hop (Bru-1), and will use a different yeast (1318).

I don't believe it. A man of your age on the drink all weekend. Apparently you were on the job as well in the hotel. Your lucky your walking straight

Chores all done so time for a bit of “me” time with a guest ale from @Benfleet Brewery. I don’t know anything about this beer except that it’s a bottle conditioned NEIPA and looks lovely.

Being bottle conditioned I poured the ale slowly and carefully leaving a little in the bottle. Carbonation is good, the almost white head persisted, the colour is a gorgeous juicy orange and as you can see the beer is very hazy as you’d expect for a NEIPA.

The aroma is a really inviting with caramelised pineapple, zingy grapefruit citrus, and a touch of orange. I’m not waiting any longer...

Wow, punched in the face by those bright flavours The grapefruit zing and pith is emphasised by a little bitterness and I’d say grapefruit is the dominant flavour but it’s ably supported by the orange and pineapple. A little sweetness helps makes the fruity flavours more juicy. The mouthfeel is smooth and the soft fizzy bubbles excite your tongue. From the slight tackiness on my lips I can tell this ale must have finished with a fairly high gravity. There are no off-flavours at all and the finish is long-lasting with that grapefruit and a touch of pith lasting well over a minute.

This ale is up there with some of the better commercial NEIPAs I’ve had. Bravo!

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

There’s only one beer that can follow that
Summer Breeze

A glass of Radler, a newspaper and some sunny weather what more could you want.

Maybe a butler to bring you another?

Also, maybe to BBQ you your choice of food heaven (and clean up!)

Stopped off at the pub mid walk for a pint of London Pride. My first cask beer for a long time

Unfortunately the baby wanted feeding so I had to have another!

Props to my wife for her excellent multitasking here.
