What are you drinking tonight 2023.

When did you start being sensible

It’s the driving the next morning I’m worried about. A man with a bag and a straw can impact on your wages lol

Evening all. I’m have a guest beer to start. A British Pils kindly sent by @dave_77.
Lovely pour, it’s crystal clear and perfectly carbonated. A steady stream of bubbles replenished the head right to the end of the pint.
The aroma is mainly lemon and grapefruit citrus, but the flavour is more complex. I’m getting grapefruit and gooseberry hop flavours on top of the mild malty background.
It’s a lovely lager, crisp dry and very refreshing. Cheers mate and that’s for sharing it.

Glad you enjoyed it. You got the last pint, I went to pour a glass the day after and it finished

We’ve had a few days socialising so I’m well behind on forum posts, sorry!

Just back from another family lunch at the pub where I enjoyed several pints of Sussex Best. I’m now having a glass (the first glass of a new keg) of my latest batch of Butterfly Effect.

Just back from an extended family lunch at the Saracens Head, Weston, Stafford. Had a couple of very good pints of TT Landlord.

They have a TT Champion Club plaque proudly displayed. Whatever they do to get it, they serve a good pint.
Beer was long gone before I thought to take a picture!!

Liquid lunch. Saint croix from Bluestone brewery. Nice and fruity. But still tastes like beer.

I have @pilgrimhudd kiwi pale kindly sent as a bonus swap. I’m getting a Refreshers sweets kind of aroma which is very interesting, flavour has complexity, a nice level of bitterness, very enjoyable.

That's what my airlock smelled like when I was fermenting my one. I remember describing it as sherbet but your description is better

My wife got me the 3 for £5 offer from Waitrose so that’s the rest of the week sorted. They will all be new to me.

3 crackers there

First pint for about a week

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

After kegging a beer this morning I went for a pub lunch with two of our grandchildren (Speckled Hen) then another pub with friends this afternoon (Harvey’s). Home now and I’m giving this beer a second chance after the last one had a plastic flavour. I’m pleased to say this bottle doesn’t have that flavour so there must have been something amiss with that bottle.

You should write them a sternly worded letter indicating your distress. To which they should dispatch a consignment of top quality ale for your satisfaction.

You picked a good one to start.

Dregs from bottling the Tribute. Now some cans of Tribute...
Plans are to brew tomorrow but I can't decide what!
It's hopefully a Christmas beer so the choices are...stout,esb or maybe a Belgian.

Had the London Porter for the first time the other night, very nice beer

 

[Rodcx500z]

Having this now very nice

 

[dave_77]

Had a nice and refreshing Farmhouse beer from @dan125. Subtle spice from the yeast with some fruity hop character

Now having my Mosiac, Centennial and Citra pale

First pour of my latest Nitro Irish Red iteration. Can’t fault it. Clarity is good, colour is good. The extra low colour chocolate malt has brought balance to the caramel malts I was missing on V1. I’m chuffed.
