What are you drinking tonight 2021?

[chillipickle]

All ways a decent ale.

Tonigbt I am drinking my hefeweizen. Whats interesting and il try and get a pic next time is how clear it was at the start of the pour. Half a pint or so was crystal clear and really tasted nice. Totally different from the yeasty end result once the bottle is loused. A beer in its own right that I may consider exploring. Perhaps a higher ABV, and a touch of darker malt and cold crash it to let it clear down. Not sure if thats already a recognised type of wheat beer but I think I might give it a go

Time to try my Belgian tripel. It's very young, only one week in the bottle but it spent 4 week's in the fermentor. This is just shy of 10% brewed using wlp550 and a late addition of coriander seeds.
This is going to be a winner, no alcohol burn at all, fermentation temps were at the lower end.

Founders Better Half (again). The place has 25cs of it and nobody's buying it but me. I'm okay with that.

As mentioned. Never seena wheat beer clear like that before.

What have you done!

Looks like there has been a priming inconsistency in my Weizenbock. Last nights bottle was flat as a pancake, tonight’s went off like Vesuvius. Batch primed to 3vols CO2, I’m guessing the sugar solution hadn’t distributed properly before bottling. It’s bloody delicious, wheat first then the malts take over. Lots of banana esters from the yeast. It’s pretty much what I was shooting for, really annoyed at the bottling mess up.

I must brew another weizenbock, lovely beer. What yeast did you use, from memory I think I used T58

WLP380 this time, Wy3068 is my go to for wheat beers but GEB didn’t have it in stock. I’ve been reliably informed but others on here that they’re the same strain.

This has happened to me before. As you say the sugar solution didn't mix to well. I now give everything a light stir to make sure

No work tomorrow, so black IPA for me

 

[DavidDetroit]

That beer is a big deal around these parts. I like stouts, it's a sipper with noticeable coffee and chocolate flavor.

Your photo has encouraged me to open up your Weizenbock...

It's superb! Lot of banana esters, dark malts in abundance. A great winter warmer.
Carbonation level was good for me

After a fairly dry weekend I was in Morrisons today the end of aisle they had this, pedigree, and spitfire £1.00 a bottle so I grabbed a good few, would be rude not to

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Starting with an English Bitter. I think I may need to get another batch brewed over the next few days.

Absolutely battered, all day hard labour, so a 4 pack of Black Sheep for me for smooth easy drinking muscle relaxant... three pints... at lunchtime?

“Drink up,” said Ford, “you’ve got three pints to get through.”
“Three pints?” said Arthur. “At lunchtime?”
The man next to ford grinned and nodded happily. Ford ignored him. He said, “Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.”
“Very deep,” said Arthur, “you should send that in to the Reader’s Digest. They’ve got a page for people like you.”

And a plate of scampi with loads of lemon and salt! Brilliant!! I am actually relaxing and feeling good
