What are you drinking tonight 2022?

[micklupulo]

Now a Ringwood Circadian served in stages to keep cool.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

When I kegged my premium bitter earlier this week I collected the dregs (2 pints) from the fermenter into a bottle and force carbed it. I had a pint that night and now the other tonight.

Onto my Italian Pilsner now, doesn’t seem to want to clear (I’m too impatient to lager it for long) but it’s a very a quaffable beer.

 

[KentishMan]

Double hopped IPA at 8%
Very nice depth and good balance with the alcohol and hops.

which is lucky, because I’m currently fermenting something very similar myself. Due to keg this weekend, but must be patient to let this bad boy mellow…

Hurray!
It's Friday beer o'clock.
My Dortmunder (Pilsner) to test how it has matured since bottling on 1st May. A fair bit I would say. It is clear, that's condensation on the
glasses.
Daughter also demanded a little something, and SWMBO'd concurred so it has been shared.
It was made with all Saaz hops, and strangely seems to have a distinct but fleeting aroma of pine resin (SWMBO'd thought more woody).
Daughter thought herbal.
All continue drinking it though, so it can't be totally bad.

Out of interest, how long did you leave this fermenting before you kegged? Curious about how conditioned it is, as I’m always impatient myself.

 

[531Man]

Divided by 3 that wasn't much of a beer.
Having a home brew for the first time in a while made me hanker after others.
So it's the Mogrel ale next up , bloody marvellous! Especially considering how it came about.

 

[Tanglefoot]

Another week done and a welcome glass of Steam Pilsener, been chilling in a mini keg for a couple of weeks.
Ended up buying double the hops I needed for this one, so nice I'm going to do another !

Chill haze clearing towards end of the glass

I normally give all my beers 12 days in the fermenter. My Best Bitter comes out of the fermenter ready to drink (once carbonated) but it improves over the next couple of weeks.

This one was also fermented for 12 days and came out of the fermenter clear (these two pints were a bit hazy because I picked up a little yeast). I haven’t made this particular brew before so not sure about conditioning but it’s easy drinking now and I assume it’s going to improve further over the next two weeks.

Awesome, I may go in earlier next time I brew pale ale then

I kegged a pale ale this morning, this is it. Again, a couple of weeks will see this good.

This is not a bad beer in fact it is rather nice

Went into LIDL today to get some Bratwursts for a BBQ tomorrow. Picked this up while I was there.

Best value wheat beer in my experience.

 

[LesTom]

Crisp, cold and refreshing - a cracker

 

[Leon103]

So nice not getting wet when getting a beer.
New kegerator is now in the utility.
Pale ale to start

 

[531Man]

Pilsner No.1 rather too warm.
Still tasty.
Perhaps I should bottle and chill it.

Nelson sauvin Saison


Big day tomorrow Derry Vs Clare in the quarter final of the all Ireland

 

[531Man]

And my iteration of Exmoor Ale.
Saved 'til last 'cos it is everyone's and my favourite.
Such a simple recipe, yet so satisfying.

 

[Chippy_Tea]

SWMBO got me a couple of my favourites to start the night.
