What are you drinking tonight 2022?

[NormanHurst]

That's a top class Saison

Been on my list for a while. Great to find a 75cl bottle.

The brother just bought the new giant gravel bike.. it looks well

I was looking at a new gravel bike last week. I don't use mine enough to justify the price. Just need to convince myself that I need it.

Can get it for £3500 via a mate who owns a local shop. Then stick it on cycle2work and save over 40%. A lot of bike for the money.

My work has a cycle to work but it's not at 40%

You don't pay tax and Ni on it. I pay 40% tax and I believe currently 3.5%NI.

I must check it out again and get back to you. I would like a new road bike

I like the BMC Road bikes. Nothing wrong with my current road bike so no new one for a couple of years

Another pilsner whilst catching up in the TdF highlights

A brew day today, just a Best Bitter, after the clean up decided to try my Coopers Sparkling clone bottled on the 6th July so one week in the bottle. As to be expected low carbonation but the POR hops are shining through looking forward to getting stuck into this.

Second up my Foreign Extra Stout, best stout I have ever made, just missed out on the Stout Extravaganza comp but will be entering the Vic brew comp in September.
Head, now consistency of shaving cream, can't beat the darker malts for a positive foam. Good retention all the way down, and the sour taste coming through stronger.

Finally a beer before dinner, a palate cleanser heavily hopped IPA (English) before a left over lamb curry.

A potion no 9, the blurb says a hoppy session pale which indeed it is, and it's lovely.

 

[pilgrimhudd]

Followed by a kiwi pils, not enjoying these overly but not many more to get through.

 

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

A glass of my Vienna lager. Very nearly emptied this keg now.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Starting again tonight with a Pale Ale.

 

[micklupulo]

More comfortable here in West Wales than in the West Midlands so glad to be back particularly with a bottle of lightly chilled Courage Directors'!

 

[dave_77]

Just finished cooking a couple of Curry's so a little light refreshment.

Mid week sample of Mosaic & Citra IPA kegged 11 days ago, taken a while but starting to clear.
Fresh tropical fruity aroma and taste, my first brew with Verdant IPA yeast.
Fermentation was impressive and ale still seems lively even though it attenuated to 84%.
Roast chicken with Chard and Courgettes from the garden to follow.
