Yes! Booze cruises are back.
Even if quantity is now restricted.

Tonight's starter is 'it ain't great, so get it drunk as it ain't bad'
Not very hoppy Czechish pale ale. View attachment 56541
Wine import to UK from EU.
Just in case anyone else needs to know:
If like us, you convert all your allowance to wine, i.e. no spirits,
you can bring back 36 x 75cl (that's a normal one) bottles per person over 18y/o.
Beer is 48 litres on top.
But we brew, so that's unlikely.
 
Off down the pub tonight. Having a Belgian pale before I leave the house. This keg just keeps giving. Brewing it's replacement tomorrow, brew devil is clean and water is prepped.
 
Went to the brew shed for a beer and it seems I left the gas on this ipa for 24hrs while carbing a Belgian at 20psi so a rather large head (poured 2 to make up a full pint while I burp the keg)
Really nice this now as I haven’t had one in over a month. Zeus chinook and vic secret and a nice grapefruit bitterness with a surprisingly smooth finish.
I like.

What was the final gravity? The saison yeast should finish really low so it it didn't then the explosion is due to it still fermenting.

Leon, it finished at 1.002. The carbonation is ridiculous though so we're assuming it was bottled slightly too early. I just don't get it though. Surely 0.002 of gravity wouldn't make it go mad like that? :confused.:

Perhaps he put too much priming sugar in by mistake or something.

My first taste of one of Nick's bitter of this parish. Colour and taste are good, doesn't taste as strong as my figures suggested it is. A bit under-carbonated, but maybe that'll improve in another week or two (this is just over three weeks after bottling). I'll be a bit annoyed if it turns out I've spoilt a good beer by under-priming, though. Like a few folk, I daresay, I've found myself gradually reducing the amount of priming I do as I get more experienced. But as much as any other factor, I just think some beers take longer to fully carb up than others.
