Eight Arch Corbel clone from the CAMRA homebrew book. I won't post a picture cos it ain't much to look at (think muddy puddle 😀) but it is a cracking IPA. I don't normally follow recipes from books, and I may have tweaked this one (I added some Munich, I always think I can improve a recipe!😂), but maybe I should put my faith in proven recipes more often 🤔
 
Back from holidays.

Enjoyed some terrific beers along the way.

Topped off with this beauty from wilderness brewery.

Once I got home I caught up with the builders and we cracked open some Talus pale, was really satisfied with this when I first made it but it's grown on me and the flavours have developed nicely

Ah! Not for me, life’s too short. Same with anything I brew, if I don’t like it 30 pints gets tipped. That doesn’t happen very often I’m pleased to say. 😉
Agreed. I have 19l of ‘experimental” ipa that I’m praying comes good or it’s getting tipped next week. It’s already had a month and I can detect a small amount of corn and I find it offensive to my pallet don’t agree with drinking something that isn’t a pleasure to drink.
 
Aw that's a shame. Some of them do look like pondwater and it does put me off - but still would like to try one.
I like to try them as they always sound promising but rarely deliver what they describe but that’s just my personal choice and taste at the min. I used to love all things fruity now not so much but I’m still tempted by the normally bright cans lol

This I can get on board with, the primary limitation on how much beer I can drink is not cost but how much strain I am willing to put on my liver, and frankly I’m not willing to waste it on beer that is terrible or even mediocre for that matter. It’s hard to do at first but their is something deeply satisfying about watching a keg of poor beer go down the drain, knowing its now free to fill with something more to my liking.

100% brewing is cheap (apart from hops) and of it dosnt work our dump it. It dosnt happen too often but it happens. Dump. Brew. Move on having learnt what dosnt work.
