Or call up to the Trench rd. I'll look after you with prices.

Oh aye ?? Need some stuff myself for putting a roof on my decking area so might take you up on that offer if it’s not exclusive

 

[Clint]

I will get to the Irish Stout but still busy with the English Bitter.

Thick cloud now and even a few odd spots of rain so the heat-wave is coming to an end .

On the other hand it’s not cold yet and my glass is full!

No problem. @Gerryjo called up t'other week & got some timber for his wee project as well.

@Brewnaldo Nice one, thanks. I step mashed and fermented at 10C with wy2308. Batch no2 is about to undergo D-rest. I’ll bottle some after lagering this time I’ll have something properly carbonated to send around.

As everyone else seems to be on the pop tonight Ive cracked open a Campden Pale. Not as nice as the off menu IPA but thoroughly serviceable.

Cheers all!

Its interesting what you say about the dryness of mine because I have recently been considering a higher mash temp to try and leave a little bit higher FG amd residual sweetness. Might rethink that

Good man, sounds like a plan.

Breaking the fast at the end of a week without. Since it's been a warm, sunny day, I went with a pale hoppy beer.
I have a few of these left still, bought almost a year ago now. Its still got lots of bitter hopiness, slightly toned down than when fresh and I think I prefer it for that.

Big selection in there today and they hadn’t all put on the shelves when I was in.

One of my Czech Amber Lager

Finally having that Irish Stout. That’s nice! Ignore the cooking, I’m multi-tasking

 

[pilgrimhudd]

Having a blonde from a box of cheap beer that a mate bought ages ago and gave me a few.

This is very nice, reminds me a little of a fullers honeydew even though theres no honey in it...

 

[Donegal john]

American stout taster. Still young but the bitterness is rounding out a bit.

Very late to the party, but needs must. Completely missed the best of the day as putting virtual fires out when certain colleagues went into wholly unnecessary panic mode between 3-5pm today. Bar-stewards.

Chilled a bit with a large gin from the missus (on a Wednesday! I must have looked like I needed it) before shovelling some compost and laying a couple of paving slabs as therapy.

Happily restored to my rightful happy place now sampling my Burton Bridge Golden Delicious. Not sure after the first couple of samples so thought it best to keep trying. Not bad for 13 days from pitching the yeast and over a week in the PB. Beginning to clear.

Made a starter on Sunday with wyeast 1214. Was going to chuck it out last night because it was showing no sign of life. Today it took of, never experienced a lag like that before. It says it slow to start but 3 days

So my Belgian single is back on

Follow up the Campden Pale with some of the GEB English IPA. It's more of a pale than an IPA in my book, but has come good with another week in keg. Very happy with it.

Very professional!

Technically Not a Galaxy Vienna Smash APA 6.3%


Basically 80% Vienna 20% Wheat hopped with Galaxy.

This has almost a creamy taste to it (I presume it’s the wheat maybe) but either way it’s a very soft flavour, no hop burn and unfortunately or fortunately depending on how you look at it extremely easy to drink for the ABV.

 

[StoutWolf]

Next up, something roasty and dark. I like these a lot, but this is the last one I have in stock.
