Started with a Dunkel
Deschutes Haze Tron Imperial Hazy IPA. Very well balanced at 8% ABV.
Going to be bottling another 71' Bodds (19L) from Ron's site this week can't wait!
Cheers!

Don't normally drink this but thought I'd try it as it's banana. As I thought it's too strong for me but the flavour is nice. Maybe I'll try it in a whiskey mac which @Baldylocks Brewery mentioned earlier.
I got the Deschutes variety pack. Now we are on to the Fresh Squeezed IPA one of my favorites. I've also homebrewed a clone of this as well in the past a great IPA.

This is my 8.2% DIPA version of Butterfly Effect. Too many of these and the beer won’t be the only thing on the decking 
Water. Lots of bubbles.

Had a Brew by Numbers 4.5% West Coast IPA, really good 
I’m having a DIPA from No Frills Joe to ease the mind-numbingly boring job of painting. It’s the one job I really don’t like about decorating and that’s a bit of a bugger because there’s so much painting involved!

On this occasion I’m drinking from the can! #RiskAssessmentDon’t put your brush in your glass and drink the paint.

My 5 points best bitter.
I’m starting tonight with a guest beer, a 5.4% Rosemary & Simcoe IPA from @Leon103.
The beer is a nice golden colour with a little haze and a good white head which collapsed after a short while to a ring around the glass and then persisted to the end. Medium carbonation is perfect. There was a little sediment in the bottle and I left that behind.
The aroma is a little un-nerving because it’s the rosemary that stands out but the flavour of the rosemary is far more restrained. It is still quite evident however, it adds an interesting savoury note and there is a slightly perfumed finish to the beer. The balance though is good and I think the “seasoning” is well judged. I’d put this in the same category as my own spruce beer - interesting and actually quite nice in small measure but I’d maybe not brew a whole keg!
Thanks Leon for sharing, for some reason I fancy roast chicken tonight

And I wanted to try the imperial stout, got my scores back and this one didn't score well 27... Feedback was one dimensional malt and some phenolic off flavours. Recommended to add some different malts, it has 6. It's still young, but I think the bitter gold hops might be too spicy and harsh for bittering.
