What are you drinking tonight 2022?

[Hazelwood Brewery]

After several of my own, one of someone else’s. It’s a perfectly nice beer but not one I’d recommend particularly.

More Maibock. 6.4%, but so easy to drink.

Just ticked off a beer style that I had never tried. Oud Bruin fermented on Acorns from @beerison . I like a Flanders red and this was along the same lines but more subtle sourness. Light maltiness with a creamy nuttiness which I assume is from the Acorns and a light vinegary sourness. Nice beer

Had a Duration Altbier also, had this a few weeks ago and had to get myself another can.

Tonight I couldn't resist a taste of my Antipodean Bass clone, served through the beer engine. This is one drink that deserves to be served through the pump.
Still conditioning 8 days in the cask, another 2 weeks it will be on the money.



First sup. WOW!


Gladfield Malts has done it proud.


BONZER! A bloody ripper.

Oud bruin on acorns sounds amazing

I thought acorns were poisonous or is that horse chestnuts.

I’ve been away with work in Croatia for the last week so I’ve been lucky enough to delve into the craft beer scene here in Zagreb. And at £1.60 a pint for a hoppy NE IPA it’s been dangerous to say the least. But I can confirm there is a healthy craft beer scene here

Interesting...i didn't know that. I'm not sure how @beerison treated them before brewing or where the idea came from i seem to be ok this morning

I think it may be horse chestnuts. You can make a faux coffee with acorns and they feed them to pigs, well they do over here.

Seem to correct on both as I read that the acorns need to be cooked too. I didn't realize there were horse and sweet chestnuts... remember my dad buying me the roasted chestnuts in London... apparently they are sweet onesI think

Horse chestnuts are conkers.

Now I'm confused...chestnut stuffing is sweet chestnuts...is it cob nuts or chestnuts they roast and sell around tower bridge?

I haven’t had them but it could be sweet chestnuts if they look like chestnuts or cobnuts if they look like hazelnuts (just to blow your mind now, cobnuts ARE hazelnuts!). It’s normally chestnuts…

Chestnuts roasting on a open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose

Yes we did this whilst I lived in Spain.

My wife bought some roasted chestnuts at hull fair some years ago but she didn’t like them as she said they tasted burnt and were very crunchy. I pointed out to her that they need to come out of the shell before eating them

Latest stout, 2 weeks in the keg, whilst the hop stand stands. Probably time to rehydrate yeast for today's brew.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Pint of my Sea Fury clone sat in the garden pity it’s gone overcast.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Round our youngest daughters for our grandsons birthday. Bought a few beers in Tesco on the way. This one is research - started okay(ish) but I really didn’t like it by the end.

 

[Little Rock Brewing]

In Fuerteventura on the hunt for decent beer! Only one supermarket open today and this caught my eye amongst the shelves of lager. I guess the label means 3 malts and 3 hops. Pretty nice at 6.2%, a kind of dark lager I guess?

Cream Ale, I've got covid and it tastes like liquid cardboard.
