I will be honest i can't be a--sed tonight full of a stinking cold so early bed me thinks

Ive had a ***** cold - naturally the wife said it was covid - when she got it and I said SHE had covid....... she said it was a cold!!
No wonder the divorce rate is so high.

Beerhawk advent calendar day 1: Barden from Thornbridge a very good and drinkable English ale

 

[Tanglefoot]

Another from my visit to Hook Norton brewery, Red Rye.
5 malts ; Pale, Crystal, Crystal Rye,Enzymic and Wheat.
5 hops ; Williamette, Sovereign, Citra, Amarillo, Chinook

I've been really impressed with all their beers, this is a lovely fruity red ale but with a citrusy bitterness and aroma.

Not sure I would buy this again. It's just ok.

Hook Norton is just down the road from me. This looks like one I'm going to have to make a trip for!

That looks and sounds really nice tanglefoot

Brew fridge roulette. Found a couple of unlabelled bottles of HB at the back.
This is Irish Red V1, a little too much roasted barley but otherwise pretty damn good. I’m particularly liking the fuggles.

Well worth the trip, just to see the beautiful building itself.
The shop is well stocked and very reasonable. You can get a minipin ( 18 pints ) for around £ 30 -£ 35 which is a bargain.
Good choice of bottles too, I recommend the Flagship IPA !

Brewdog advent calendar day 3.

Lost in Mango. The best yet. I could drink a few of these.

 

[jayk34]

This is quite good.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Decorations up!

Time to celebrate and I’m starting tonight with a pint of Mild.

 

[Stu's Brews]

Onto a bottle of the IPA I made a couple of months ago with Chevallier malt with EKG and Bramling Cross hops. A touch over-carbonated but tastes pretty good.

 

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

Bought this because it’s one of my absolute favourites, but I’m disappointed as it doesn’t taste nearly as fresh as last time. Tastes like it’s been sat in the keg for 6 months

 

[Mrhandsome]

Started off with a Muntons Flagship APA. It's getting better with each bottle but I can still taste that homebrew taste I always get from the FILs beers. He only makes extract beers, not AG.

Still, it looks the part... Onto a Chimay Tripel to sip whilst I wait for the wife woman to get back from her Christmas do. I'm on guard duty until then.

This beer is incredible.

A Bitter!

Yeah, first and last for me.

Beerhawk advent calendar day 2. Nouveau Riche, a different but decent wheat beer

 

[Donegal john]

Tree went up during the week in the living room and I always put a real tree up in the kitchen as it’s the main hub over Christmas. So festive feeling is in the air I’m having a few off tempo dipa and the wife is having our festive drink. Harvey wallbangers. A good night is ahead.

 

[chthon]

Trapix Tripel, first tasting, six weeks after brewing. Brewed with B19 Trapix yeast. Nice yeast. Has a bit of Westmalle (or just Belgian?) qualities, although doesn't have the alcohol tolerance. But mastery is in the limits. ;-)
