What are you drinking tonight 2023.

[Leon103]

A 3 day cycling trip starts tomorrow at 7am. Just a small saison to help me sleep.

So, last one tonight from the Lidl box, then I really must have an ale.

Number 3 - Malty, but with a bit more bitterness perhaps? Sweeter than the other two, but not as... erm... Malty

 

[YeastFace]

I also got that.

My local store had either sold out or not put stock out yet. Wil try again Saturday.

I picked it up Wednesday, not meant to be on the shelves until Thursday. Must have got lucky

Bull house beers are normally on point but I have seen them try to do quantity over quality lately

I've had others from them that have been good. Maybe it should have been labelled Hazy Pale, as it lacked the punch of an IPA. A problem with hop dominant hazy/NEIPAs, it's all the eggs in one basket.

I did also wonder if they were trying to copy Deya Steady Rolling Man, with the similar name and same Abv. That probably raised expectations.

I have followed them from their start when they were doing smaller batches of exciting beers but they have upped production and increased distribution as well as opening a bar and I have found all their beers to be the same now all “juicy hoppy “ type
I know that’s the styles that sell but what’s wrong with a hood ipa or stout

Went again at lunch. None out and none in the back when I asked (and not expecting any more in).

Must've been grumbling as my partner has driven to another store on her lunch break and got me a box. What a keeper.

Small nzpa in the lovely hot spell.
Quit my job today after 10 years.
Start a new one on Tuesday with a better boss and better conditions.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

We went for a pub lunch again today but I only had one pint of Sussex Best because I’m out tonight at homebrew club.

After all the discussion about bangers and mash that’s what I found myself ordering for lunch (this one was £14).

 

[YeastFace]

The working week is done.

Thornbridge Quiet Storm Hallertau Tradition. Lovely noble hop goodness.

Quiet one for me tonight as gig in Brighton tomorrow and hoping to get down fairly early for a few scoops.

 

[obscure]

A nice classic Dunkel, which with how hot it is was just what I needed cheers and happy Friday

 

[pilgrimhudd]

Busy day, had an interview at lunchtime, a run to get the angst out and now started judging for the August comp, 2 in so far. Both have been good.

 

[SMP Brewery]

Happy Friday all. Mango IPA for me which is lovely and Cider for the better half.

 

[gibbo_sd]

A Spanish Marzen..
cheers all …

 

[pilgrimhudd]

3rd one, not a cigarette paper between them so far.

 

[SMP Brewery]

Not had mine yet then

Was this from Lidl? Saw it earlier, but didn't take a closer look more fool me.

I quite enjoyed it.
