What are you drinking tonight 2021?

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

The husband is very cross about this, and the son will be as well when he eventually surfaces from upstairs lol

He is very superstitious and he always insists on drinking from his Liverpool mug when they are playing, cos if he doesn't then they lose. However this morning I was using it. I asked him if he wanted it and he said no, it's silly that I do that.

Now he wishes he had used it!

After a night off, I'm back.
English Bitter brewed 11th Oct.

Got to say, for a user-upper it's one tasty bitter. Not quite fully cleared, but far better than 5 days ago after casking up.
Unfortunately due to the limited amount of base malt (1266g), I only made 10.5L at OG1037, on pouring tonight measured as finished at FG1003. So 4.5%.
SWMBO'D just enquired as to why my hydrometer's in HER broccoli colander,
"to safely pour your beer into your glass from the FG measuring cylinder, of course" replied I.
Somehow my reply failed to impress.
Some people are just so difficult to please!

Steigl ‘Columbus’
Quite a surprise and very nice too. Sort of a sophisticated take on a US style IPA but with a good noble hop character, anchored by a restrained slightly lemony acidity.
It’s a bit like ‘Anarchy in the UK’ being played softly by a string quartet in a big room with chandeliers and waiters offering trays of Ferraro Rocher
I’d recommend this if you can track it down.

Agreed,
Pretty sure I've had this in my Beer52 selections.
Also pretty sure there's one or two of them in the garage, chilling.
Tasty prospect.

Sipping?

Sunday’s are for sipping.

Busy week ahead, I have to bottle My tripel and Saison. Plus brew a dubbel and a stout. Two IPA's after that and a Belgian IPA, that should be Christmas sorted

Graham Wheelers Ind Coupe Double Diamond Export from his Euro book. Not a bad drop. Pantaloons photo makes it look cloudy, when (amazingly for me) it's really clear.

 

[marshbrewer]

I was going to chuck this; it's a California Common, but with the crystal malt portion subbed for caramalt. It had the dreaded bitter / astringent taste I was getting. However, it's conditioned out (mostly) which is interesting. I'm assuming that rules out an infection (I condition at 12°c). The plot thickens.

Tastes ok, actually

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Over the last few days I’ve put on a new keg of stout and a new keg of mild and I’ve not had any of either. I’m putting that right tonight, starting with the first pint of mild from the fresh keg.

 

[Rodcx500z]

This false Vienna is really nice now it has lost some of the bitterness and the maltyness is now very subtle one of the best brews I have brewed, I really have to leave my beers longer I am going to get 2 more kegs soon
