What are you drinking tonight 2021?

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Another guest ale. This is a Dubbel from @Subtle Duck and weighs in at 7.2%.

Beautiful clear brown colour and a nice fluffy head. The head dissipated after a couple of minutes but the ale was nicely carbonated.

The aroma is classically Belgian and absolutely on point with Belgian esters, dark sweet malt and stone fruit.

The flavour is gorgeous and again classic Belgian - sweet dark candi, dark caramel malt, ripe prunes, slightly solventy alcohol (in a nice way). I’m very happy with this accomplished beer.

Feeling very spoilt tonight by two great beers. Happy days for sure!

Thanks mate, just need to get the unit doors on and get some curtains/blinds made. But we're going to wing it this weekend and just stick something over the windows

@pilgrimhudd Belgian pale. This is very nice. Lovely golden colour, gave it a rough pour to get a nice white head which lasts. Very good clarity
Aroma is nice, typically Belgian yeast with a slight herbal aroma
Taste is again is spot on. Nice bitterness with a good mouth feel.

Really enjoying this. Really nice flavour and good body for a low abv.
Cheers

Glad you enjoyed it mate, trying to lower the abv of my beers as at one stage 7% was about average, this is lowish for a belgian pale but I think it works.

Still enjoying it. Trying the same myself to drop the abv but keep the flavour. Saying that I have an imperial in the fermentor

This just keeps getting better

 

[Benfleet Brewery]

A pint of my Stout. Tastes good but I had to be quick for the photo before the head of big CO2 only bubbles disappeared.

Two pints of post-run Wainwright's in a real pub! Whatever beer you want so long as it's Marston's. Actually the Wainwright tasted better tonight than I've had in that pub for a long while. Nice lemony hop finish.

Followed by a cheeky pint of "Wild Thing" kveik APA to wash down my big bowl of risotto.

I may have started early

One Summer Breeze and two English Bitters down and I’m starting work on my new fermentation cabinet.

...it’ll be fine

Glad to say that Jagged Edge is as good on draft as is on tin

 

[pilgrimhudd]

A belgian single from @samale , unfortunately quite flat,so no head despite a vicious poor. Hazy golden colour, a mild spicy floral aroma, tastes lovely, much the same as the aroma with a sweet finish, medium bodied I'd say. I'm really enjoying it, just needs a bit more fizz!

Now that is showing off. Sun??

 

[cushyno]

We've had sun all day here. Past 5pm it's on the wrong side of the house for sitting out. So I've retired to the brew cave to "check on the slow starting lager yeast" while dinner is in the oven.

1. Sample no.1 is a 1/2 pint of SAISON! (Because it's sunny)
2. Sample no.2 QC of the TT Landlord clone (coming along nicely)
3. Sample no. 3 is anyone's guess... What goes with a chilli?

Landlord is clearing. Lighter than the photo looks.

It's been lovely up here in the sunny North-West!
