What are you drinking tonight 2023.

[Hazelwood Brewery]

For me a Best Bitter from a new keg. A little bit hazy still but maybe just because it’s the start of the keg.

Started with Italian Pils

Popped out to the shop so nipped into Iron pier for a pint
Cask IPA

 

[Donegal john]

A very nice large glass (620ml) of brown porter

 

[Scrattajack]

Back on the sauce.

Home brew Thwaite's Nutty Black.

 

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

Happy Friday comrades!

HobGoblin Ruby for Jim (love the slight chocolate taste I get in this) and an Erdinger for me. I don't get any banana at all though, so I think I prefer my home-brewed one of this style.

 

[Tanglefoot]

Kiwi Pilsener I brewed in December.
Nelson Sauvin & Riwaka fermented with Lalbrew Diamond.
Bit foamy as I poured it from the beer gun after another unsuccessful
attempt at bottling from the keg.

I totally agree. Erdinger is heavy on the clove and light on banana, but I'm OK with that. I've come down on something more balanced between the two in my own efforts. Wheat beers have to be the nuts for flavour tweaking.

PS: Haven't complimented you on the kegerator yet, it's a beauty!

Couldn't resist picking up a can of modern Belgian pale

 

[Scrattajack]

How close is it

How close is it

Same sort of vibe..light Belgian yeast character..but I would say it's slightly more earthy than TB which is a bit brighter citrus character with the euro hops.

 

[Alastair70]

It’s still going. Time to get out the big glass.

To accompany my Friday sausage & chips, this 750ml fliptop bottle of Belgian Triple, on offer @ £2.99 in Aldi. Quite light and refreshing considering it's 6%. I'll see if I can pick up another bottle or two .

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

I’m in the mood for something different, my favourite wine.

Thanks Alastair - wish we had some beer in it!

 

[GotOneBrewin]

Drinking a user-upper Stout, my first brew for over six months. No too bad, not what I have been dreaming about all dry Jan though

 

[Scrattajack]

Dunkelweizen now!

 

[moto748]

ice pint of oatmeal stout. Pleased with this.

An oatmeal stout with a head, that's impressive. Mine are always as flat as an (oatmeal) pancake.

 

[dave_77]

My American pale is tasting good but still not that clear
