What are you drinking tonight 2022?

[Leon103]

I have partially filled the kids pool and emptied the toilet. Enjoying my next beer now.

Pressure Drop - am I being basic? 6.8% neipa.

Lovely, soft and fruity. Certainly not basic with imago 7, mosaic and simcoe listed as the hops. Can't beat a hazy from PD.

You’re taking advantage of bio-transformation there. It needs the right kind of yeast and the right kind of hops to work well (hops containing lots of thiols). If you dry hop with the wrong hops or yeast then fermentation will blow away much of the aroma you get from dry hopping.

Look into thiols. You could just search on this forum for “thiols” posted by me. I’m sure I included a link or two.

Thanks I will take a look at this when I am a tad more sober if it works adding hops alomgside the yeast if it works makes sense with Kveik when you are kegging after 4-5 days.

Had a couple of Camden Off Menu IPAs while prepping dinner (steak on the BBQ with a couple of embellishments). Going for a beverage that will accompany it better.

Epic cats....Good name for a beer that. I bagsy it!

 

[Clint]

I'm drinking Brewdog Punk and planet pale as my stocks are dwindling. My three beers have all finished fermenting so tomorrow's plan is a very early start and bottle the lot...about 130 bottles!
Meanwhile the bbq is ON!

With the wife and youngster on dishes duties i am pouring another beer.

DURATION - Lil Helles. 3.4% I think you can guess what style it is..

Never really drink weaker beers. And I can see why. Nice enough bit find it thin. Cashmere and el dorado as the hops so not traditional. Should have kept this as tomorrow's day time beer.

Just had a Galahad from Aldi.... For the first time in a couple of years... I have been spoilt since with a variety of homebrews and other ales....

I would say the Galahad was like laying on a lilo in a pool when you are a non swimmer.. too close to water!

Kossel Brau Mariahilfer Halbdunkel...

... New to me in all sorts of ways. Never heard of the brewery before or, more importantly, a halbdunkel or half-dark lager. It's really really good. Like a top notch Vienna lager (probably a similar grain bill). Much crisper and drier than most Dunkels but so much more character than paler styles.

Anyone know anything about the halbdunkel style?

 

[marshbrewer]

No piccy, but I'm finishing the evening with a tanglefoot then a McEwan's Export, the most underrated IPA in the world

Then it's alcohol free until Thursday. Not sure I'll manage that in this heat, lol.

 

[Pennine]

Helles lager from Tivoli not bad at all.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Some friends dropped by for a chat and a beer so I have some catching up to do…

Weissbier
Schwarzbier
Stout

Finishing with a glass of really nice wine, one of my favourites.

Several pints of cider supplied by the Mrs as the pub just had those trendy over hopped American style beers on tap or (shudders) lager

 

[foxy]

Had to have another try of my Coopers Sparkling clone. 12 days in the bottle so some time to go yet, more carbonation as I can still detect priming sugar. But still very nice just have to put it out of my mind for a couple of weeks.

 

[phildo79]

Bugger all. After a 12 day binge (wedding (not mine) and holiday)), I think I need a detox.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

I’m starting with this Caribbean rum barrel aged beer from I&G. I prefer their original.

 

[Clint]

These are the bottling dregs from today's triple batch bottling session.
Left to right..German pilsner,clean,a bit of spice. Golden ale...floral,pithy,juicy finish. American pale...Nice aroma from the cascade and cashmere, quite bitter,juicy finish. I was a bit concerned as the golden ale and American pale were out at ambient temps but didn't really get to the mid 20s until the last couple of days. The MJ West Coast yeast used on the American pale was a bit smelly from the blow off bottle...like eggy dog farts.. but it tastes fine so not bothered.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Time for a cold one, this is from the fridge.

 

[Leon103]

Bbq dinner.

Beer
Duration - Doses 5.1% abv German Pils.

Its hot so anything could hit the spot right now. This is crisp, dry and floral. I like it

 

[DocAnna]

Busy couple of days, I’m a wee bit behind with the forum: Tintagel castle, Padstow and the requisite Rick Stein fish and chips yesterday ( lovely but best not to think of the calories!). Eden project and the beach today, my youngest went paddle boarding. Back to the cottage and time for a bit of reading about the day - oh and the OH and I are enjoying our supplies from the brewery tour at the weekend.

 

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

We’ve no beer ready so I’m drinking this again. Cooking a recipe from a new company we’re trying. Green Chef, who do Keto meals.

 

[DocAnna]

Now this is really quite nice , soft red berry fruit, a bit if chocolate, and almost a ‘cola’ flavour. I could get a taste for this.
