What are you drinking tonight 2023.

[Hazelwood Brewery]

A small German lager with a couple of freshly baked (by the supermarket) cheese and pickle rolls on this gloriously warm and sunny day.

Totally knackered after a 4 hour stint of chainsawing and bashing in fenceposts. A nice glass of real cider made from last year's crop, about 80% cookers. Sweetened with an inch of boxed apple juice. Surprisingly drinkable but first time I've ever had cloudy cider. Used a different yeast this year though so maybe that's the reason.

Out on the town and called in at a favourite brewpub. The beer choice (of beers brewed on site). Time for a flight I think

Golden Ale hops are Endeavour and UK Cascade. Few beer with the football.

HB Bramling Cross English IPA. Second brew at my new house.

 

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

After a MASSIVE fight and three of us trying, we've managed to get the stupid cork out of this so I could have a glass

Home again now and while the girls popped in to Primark, the boys popped next door to M&S Foodhall where I picked up this haul.

I’m starting with the Belgian Cherry Wheat and I’m quite impressed with it - it’s very much like Lindemans Kriek but for half the price. Worth a try if you like Kriek.

Northern Monk

0FS083 - White Sangria Pale

Great drink, pure fruit taste with balanced bitter

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

The Blonde next. Very highly carbonated and quite strong at 7.5% but the most remarkable thing is the finish - when you swallow the beer there is almost no residual sensation, it’s completely clean and dry.

My NEIPA. Used the Greg Hughes recipe as a base, added another 300g of hops and swapped out the yeast for Verdant IPA.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

The Brune was a gusher and not just a dribble of foam. I immediately tried to close off the top of the bottle with my hand and it was like pressing your thumb over a garden hose - sprayed everywhere! Managed to catch most of the bottle with a rapid pour. This is more like a typical dark Belgian beer where you can taste everything including the candy sugar. Nice - just wish I could have had a full bottle.

I almost want to make a sign of the cross when someone says "Greg Hughes Recipe" these days even though he's alive and well. Miss the brew shop when he was running it.

Last beer is a Brett Saison brewed by @samale .perfect high carbonation, giving a fluffy head. Aroma is all about the Brett, fruity. Pepper & cinnamon with

Citrus fruity Brett flavours. Very nice beer.
Cheers for sending

Our grand-children are staying with us while their parents are in Bali. Grand-daughter wanted to go to Family Bargains so my wife took her and brought me back a present.

I’m starting with the Bale Ale, brewed in partnership with Gareth Bale as part of an initiative to fund grass roots football in Wales. 4.5% golden ale hopped with Goldings, Columbus, and Citra, costing 99p.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

This one is quite easy drinking, hopped with Talus, El Dorado, and Citra. Weighing in at 4.7% it has a nice soft mouthfeel but it is a bit thin I’m afraid.

 

[Braumeister]

Co-op ‘Triple Hop’ which confusingly has 4 different hops. Reminds me a bit of Proper Job. Best before April 23 but still tastes decent.
