What are you drinking tonight 2021?

[Clint]

Have you tried cold crashing then dry hopping? It's adds quite bit more fruitiness the few times I tried.

Hmm...I dry hop then cold crash...

Yeah I used to do that too but then I read this a while back. I don't do it everytime but probably will from now on.

At least, mate. Kegged on June 6 so it'll be August 6 before I try it again. Having a sample right now and it's getting there but still has a ways to go. Nice and boozy though.

I was talking about the two hearted clone. 6 weeks I normally have the keg done in 3 weeks

after a few chocolate stouts, back on the juicy hops.

A couple of tasters of my kegs whilst riding in the garden. Now on this neipa from Lucky 7. Citra, simcoe and Idaho.

Colour looks deep orange and it's got a softness to it but lacks flavour and aroma. Shame, I have heard good things about them.

 

[chillipickle]

citra simcoe i7 sould be bursting with flavour.

A day on Dartmoor today had to go to the brewery and bought an eight pack and a glass. Watching England and drinking Jail Ale .

Picked up this from Tesco today. Nice smooth 6% IPA. Not bags of flavour but a very refreshing nicely brewed beer

Just a warning that clone takes a good month of conditioning before it's really enjoyable. Something about the harshness of centennial when it's young seems to make it clash with the malt. Eventually the fruitiness shines and complements the sweeter malt bill well though. I always end up drinking 90% of it early and then kick myself that I wasn't more patient with it.

I've just bottled my two hearted clone last night. It's gonna be a very long months wait then. I'm really looking forward to trying this one.

What was your recipe. I went Maris otter and caramalt. 160g of centennial, 100 of that was a dry hop.

This is @Benfleet Brewery harvest pale ale, and it's very nice. Lovely and clear, head which lasts. Flavour is different to anything I've brewed before, but I've never used summit and not tasted my williamette hopped beer yet. Lovely sweet aroma. I could have another bucketful of these! Cheers mate!

Liked this so much on weekend when it was last one on the shelf, I stopped and picked up 4 more on way home tonight for the match - England showing some spark at last !

Here's the malt bill. I had a bit of trouble getting the chateau Vienna so just swapped it out for more Pale ale malz. and I think I used about 188g centennial, 100g of that was dry hop aswell. Hope it turns out nice.

Got better as it warmed but not neipa levels
