Snap

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Another of the Attic beers.

 

[Mrhandsome]

Work tomorrow morning so I'm behaving myself. A bit of Bond in the background.

Best have a rum to congratulate myself for being good!

El Dorado 12 anos. It's very sweet which means they've added sugar to make taste better. Good thing it worked!

 

[Leon103]

Morrisons have a new range including pollys

This is one of them. It's ok but not a neipa

Do like a bit of El Dorado . One of my mates is from Guyana so he brings me bottles back if he visits family.

A brew York tonkoko milk stout.
A lot more roast character than I would have thought for a milk stout but bloody nice.

 

[Bosch]

Hobgoblin up next.
Massive soft spot for this beer.

First try of the bitter I brewed using Hazelwood recipe. Light carbonation, needs time to clear. It tastes good

Amber kicked ..so Black IPA it is..
This beer had achieved my worst score in recent comp...lots of people had tasted before with positive comments. Took to homebrew club last night all good. Apparently it tasted like a wild infection on the bottle tasted. It was bottled off the keg 3 day before the comp so unlikely a wild infection would have changed it that quickly...who knows..keg isn't getting dumped though

How did the American amber score

 

[samale]

First try of my Brett Saison. This is just to check the base beer is good, the Brett will take some time to show. Saying that I can detect it slightly

Not sure yet..that was in Brewcon along with saison and Belgian pale.
The BIPA was in the hop forward Anglian comp

[CaptAwol]

Had to splice the mainbrace as it's Trafalgar day, now guzzling 'Confusion' an IPA that I got a bit mixed up with the hops

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Trafalgar day make a beer with Nelson Sauvin hops and Admiral.

 

[dave_77]

Almost finished this Saison...night night

 

[samale]

A Doom Bar whilst watching Russell Howard, bliss.

Some people really don't like the combo of hops and roast malt.

 

[foxy]

Not sure if I have mentioned this before but base malt plus some Vienna while keeping the SRM low the body suffers. Next one I am scrapping the Vienna adding light Munich and Simpsons light crystal. Just goes to show the swings and roundabouts of home brewing, aim for one thing and miss out on another. That's what makes it so interesting.
