What are you drinking tonight 2022?

[531Man]

And now another of this group's recommendations for breweries and beers when visiting the area.
Teme 5x5 25th anniversary ale.
Another bitter but mostly malt forward with balanced barley sugar
flavours.
Thanks, people.

Was excited to find this one after reading about it for many years. It smells like nothing and tastes like a honey lozenge. I must be getting sick?

Never heard of that beer - did you have it on a fresh palate?

 

[samale]

Was going to have this tonight. Think I will give it a bit longer. Condition warm or cold?

Was going to suggest that

First sample of latest beer, 4.6% Cali Common. Only been in Keg a week but starting to clear, fairly crisp already.
Be another one of those beers that I wished I let it lager for longer before I started drinking it

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

I’ve just got back from shopping and bought myself a little treat…actually, four.

First try of my American amber. Less than a week in the keg. Nice colour and clarity, maybe not malty enough, hop's are spot on. I will give it another week before trying again

 

[Alastair70]

Happy Friday friends
Starting off with a pint of Rogue Wave, it’s dropped clear and is passing the kegerator bar test for clarity. All in all, I’m very happy with it.

I’m loving the colour on that

 

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

New one for me today. Nice and light and I quite like it.

First try of my Theakston Best Bitter Clone (Graham Wheeler Recipe) and it’s a good traditional bitter, not much more I can say.

 

[ChrisR73]

Happy Friday everyone.
This is my clone, it’s not quite as good as the original but it’s decent.

Just clarify what is it a clone of?

 

[Leon103]

A rosemary and simcoe before thr main event. Thr flavour profile is certainly changing on this one

 

[samale]

A nice dark German lager from @dave_77
Nice roast aroma, colour and clarity is spot on. Malty and smooth with a good body Enjoyable beer

 

[531Man]

How could I have missed this one?
I though it was a Perry cider (it was the pear label what confused me!).
Malvrern Hills Brewery Black Oear premium bitter.
Also a very good tasty bitter. I'm getting to be spoilt over these few days away.

I think most kegged beers need a month at least before trying possibly 6 weeks.

I’m for Belgium in a few weeks and hope to be as suitably spoiled. But will have to play the game and do the Christmas markets/shopping thing as we are going for the wife’s birthday.

I am thinking about setting up a second fridge and buy more kegs. 4 on tap isn't cutting it at the min. I could use the second to condition and have the option to rotate

I come across fridges all the time and currently have 5 for different things.
American fridge freezer for kitchen
Half and half for utility room
Beer fridge for cans and bottles in garage
Brew fridge for fermenting
3 keg fridge in bar shed for serving and a spare under counter one for back up in summer
You want me to keep an eye out ? Normally full fridge half freezer ones but occasionally an under counter one pops up. All working 100%

Home brewing is all about spending a lot to save a little
