What are you drinking tonight 2022?

[Leon103]

Something festive whilst prepping the veg.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Next up a black lager from Lost and Grounded. This is a Schwarzbier and is quite nice.

 

[Tanglefoot]

Nice! Am enjoying my Riwaka hopped Pilsner as well!

I had a couple of litres over and bottled a few, I was going to send you one as I'd had one of yours in the past.

I'd appreciate your feedback, I'm rubbish at describing tastes but now you mention it I'm getting the pineapple from Riwaka.

Love to try it! I was so put off by my last effort with Nelson I've not used it since really. I'll have to try it again.

Next up @Hazelwood Brewery Summer Breeze, I've been itching to try this for years so am very grateful to try it now.

Lovely nice thick creamy head, straw coloured, slight haze. Woah, I think this could be the most aromatic beer I've had, citrus, candy, pine, yum! Well carbed, medium light body, lacing down the glass. Taste, piney, bitter, but not overly so, well balanced. My overall impression is that it's very very well made, this isn't my fave type of beer but I enjoy it occasionally, this is what I'd expect if I nipped down to verdant. Awesome job!

 

[Leon103]

Sticking with the dark beers.

At 13.2% this should see me until the end of the night
