@LisaMC or do what I often do, and pour into a large (2 litre) measuring jug. You get a jug three-quarters full of foam? So what. Simply wait five minutes, it will all calm down, and you will be able to pour into a glass comfortably.

worth a go!

I mean really cold - like in the freezer until it’s (almost!) frozen
Has it got much headspace in the bottles?
When I say ‘tickle the cap open’ I mean just lift a tiny bit of the cap (e.g. with a pair of long nosed pliers) so there’s a tiny path for the gas to hiss out slowly without removing the whole cap

also worth a go!

Nothing for me. Had a fair few last night though. TBF, it's extremely rare for the wife and I to get out for a drink. So I probably ripped the hole out of it a bit. Still, at least some good came of it. I actually found a bar that pours good Guinness. Pubs like that are as rare as hens teeth these days.

If you don't mind me asking what make is the guitar on the chair

I'm afraid I don't know; this isn't my house, we are staying in it while my sister and brother-in-law are away. It's some kind of acoustic electric, but can't make out the manufacturer.

Might crack one of my Directors tonight. It won't be ready, it's only been in the bottle a week, but I'm curious to see how it pans out.

I wasn't ready but has potential. Directors always had (I haven't drunk it for years) a dry, back of mouth taste to it. I rather liked that and the home brew version has that hint to it. Whether the brew will remind me of my Courage drinking days in Stockwell or not, it promises to be a decent drop which is just fine by me.

the one I opened today has been chilled for a full week and still the same story. It’s hopeless lol. We have tried opening and leaving but we’d be here all week honestly and it’d be warm by the time it was pourable.

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.

Happy Friday, my friends

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Mind if I pull up a stool?

English Bitter. It’s time.

 

[Jim Brewster]

Started off with a lovely Wit, perfect first beer
This jolly old chap..

Followed with this Wheat beer from Poland
Getting an ever so slight onion aftertaste that I got from one of my own wheat beers when it was young, interestingly. Could still easily drink these all night, shame it's just the 1 bottle

Munich Helles, scampi fries and todays crossword. All is good in the world, Happy Friday everyone.

I opened this thinking it was a left over bottle of my Bramling Cross Saison only to discover that it was a bottle of IPA I made a while ago. Hop flavour has mellowed somewhat but still pretty drinkable. Cheers and Happy Friday.

Picked from Aldi. Not for me it's very over powering of coriander

 

[Rodcx500z]

Don’t mind if I do happy Friday folks

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

I just knew this would happen

 

[531Man]

Absent yesterday, as.......

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.

 

[samale]

That's better dock leaf pale ale.
