What are you drinking tonight 2021?

[samale]

Wait a minute, that’s not been two weeks

Last taste tonight. It's out in the garage conditioning
I had to buy beer tonight. Stock level is low

That looks cracking samale, drink it fresh

Have to say it's lovely. I prefer this type of IPA over the hazy Neipa style.
Don't get me wrong I would drink both

I folded, slack on the brewing.Had to support the local brewery and buy 5ltrs this weekend.

A Magic Rock Saucery to start todayView attachment 41469

Is "saucery" as in things to do with saucers or indeed sauces,or "sorcery" the type of things wizards and the like get up to?
I ask as I can't see the can properly.

@matt76 Munich Helles, well carbed, good head which lasts.

Not much of an aroma, but floral and bready

I accidentally poured some of the yeast in, so not as clear as it possibly should be.

Taste wise, quite bready, some hop bitterness, again floral, nice I like it. Medium bodied I'd say, but again (and I thought this before I read your own review) it's a bit sweet for me. I get that slightly cloying feeling after a swig.

That said, I prefer this one to the Mexican Lager, this one has in my opinion got more depth of flavour and I've enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing!!

I put an all Munich brew on last night for comparison.
Cascade Chinook and a small addition of Amarillo

The big boy doppelbock is planned for next week. Just researching a dark Czech lager.
Has anyone brewed on. Sounds interesting.

Saucery... I'm sure it's intentional.

This fella, it's wee bit too carmelly for me not bad mind you.

@Subtle Duck has one on the go as well. A 3 way swap would be good. How long do you condition this style of beer

Haven't had a chance to post about beer, engrossed with the rugby. A few pilsner deep but now in the bipa, the keg that is never ending. Perhaps a dipa next.

 

[chillipickle]

Engrossed with rugby, certainly wasn’t the England game!
Scotland deserved to win, they played well again.
what the hell is Eddie doing with his player line up.....sack him.

It needs a while, not as long as an Imperial but still several weeks. Mine is 9 weeks conditioned and is becoming silky smooth and intensely malty. I already had your name against one of these

Ok, last one of @matt76 beers for the night (probably).

Well two actually, no pics as i've poured 4 glasses for me and the mrs of the 2 versions of Matts Amber Hoppy Ales matt76's Brewdays | Page 23 | The HomeBrew Forum and matt76's Brewdays | Page 21 | The HomeBrew Forum .

Just to get the obvious out the way first and you did mention it, v2 needs more fizz.

V1, pours lovely, head which lasts, beautifully clear, strong piney resiny aroma, taste similiar to aroma, bitterness perfect for me. Medium mouthfeel, this is lovely beer mate.

V2, Pretty similiar to above but less aroma and bitterness. What I would say is that as it warms it improves a lot, perhaps i didn't let V1 warm up enough because I drank it too quickly. My mrs prefers this one.

For me V1 is as near to perfect as you can get, I loved it and I will be copying this recipe for sure!!

I have a summer breeze plus a Czech pils for you. I will send them with the doppelbock when I bottle it. You can condition it in sunny England

Trying this next. It's nice but I prefer the duvel
