What are you drinking tonight 2023.

[Hazelwood Brewery]

I don’t often see mild in the shops so bought this (actually a 4-pack) when I saw it in Home Bargains. It isn’t bad but I’m sure I enjoyed my own mild more. This might be the one beer it costs more for me to make than to buy!

 

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

Didn't enjoy the last one at all so gave it to the husband. Having my last glass of Asti instead.

Make sure you drink them in a safe soft place. Cause you will fall down after

A pint of HW Rye IPA, this has mellowed a bit compared to when I first tapped it but still very pleasant.

Something sour to kick things off

 

[Tanglefoot]

Very nice pale ale with Challenger and Cascade from my local brewery.
Zesty citrus with a malty backbone, a great summer ale and sessionable
at 4.2%.
About time I got a brew on but had a lot on my plate recently one way
or another.

An outstanding Dubbel

A strong Irish Red, Alan Bond referred to his wife as 'Big Red' so that is what I call this one. Followed by a Mild, then mistakenly followed by a bitter, won't do that again after two fairly malty pints to be hit with a big hopped bitter.

What's the extra stout recipe, please?

My GMC Pale ale….this is one of the best beer recipes I think I’ve ever come up with! Nice level of bitterness and malt coming coming through with lovely fruity hop profile. The smell is just amazing!

It isn’t bad but I’m sure I enjoyed my own mild more.

It does suffer from being packaged + pasteurised. If you beat all the CO2 out if it, I think it improves, but it's a travesty this isn't available on cask anymore.

Knackered after a long brew day. Time for a beer.

Wairose Moscatel.

For anyone looking to try something extra...try something from Vault City.

First beer-garden-in-the-sunshine pint yesterday. Hardy & Hanson Bitter. I quite enjoy being rude about Greene King's beers so credit where credit due. This was a very decent pint. 3.9%, true to style and well kept.

This afternoon I need to check the beers I have on tap because we have maybe 30 family coming round. Starting with the Czech lager.

I think I kegged this beer a tad too soon because at first I could detect some off flavours - maybe a touch of acetaldehyde and diacetyl. Whatever those off flavours were, I’m pleased to say the yeast has cleaned up nicely.

Next is the German lager. This has been clean from the start and has less chill haze than the Czech.

Can safely say this is the best hoppy pale I have made. Galaxy Nectaron and welima

Waiting on the lamb

American IPA. Seems more bitter than I remember

 

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

Feels like a little taste of summer today. Couple of outside beers and husband is cutting the grass.

Can't wait until its nice enough to get the bbq out
