What are you drinking tonight 2023.

[Donegal john]

A good number
And a great stout.
It pours like treacle and tastes like melted chocolate. What a beer.

 

[Sadfield]

What hops did they use

Mosaic and columbus, in the kettle and dry hop.

Golden Promise, Extra Pale Ale, Wheat Malt, Caragold.

Bry-97

Trying my Saison again. It's still like pea soup, tastes good but looks like a Neipa.

Coffee at this time of night ?

 

[DocAnna]

Possibly the poshest pint on the planet …. A pint of 70/ lager at Gleneagles for a birthday weekend. It was pretty remarkable- I have a suspicion it’s made mostly with golden promise.

 

[YeastFace]

Last night's cap.

Promised more than it delivered, IMO.

 

[NormanHurst]

A night out at the rugby with a few beers either side. These were the picks. The Lost and Grounded was excellent - I love their lagers but this was spot on cask bitter.

How is it?

You've reminded me (a) I need to buy some and (b) I've not drunk any of last year's yet!

Great, as usual. Did feel like it had more alcohol warmth than previous years, but then I don't tend to have my first until December so may have just been a bit fresh.

Select Waitrose stores have it in stock now.

What was that one like. Going to get a few in for Christmas

 

[Donegal john]

Very dominant on the coffee with a good chocolate note and very smooth. It’s a tap room only beer so only available from the tap room in Letterkenny. Worth a run down there cause they have a few in the fridge. And 34 is on tap

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

Good afternoon good people!

Jim wanted the Thousand Yard Stare and I'm having the Tonkoko.

My vocation order hasn't arrived yet so we've been to Morrisons to get a few for the weekend.

But is it better than Aldi's Rheinbacher?

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

My wife went to a Christmas market today and brought me a small present. Love that girl

I started with the Pale Ale and now on the bitter. They’re not going to set the world on fire but they are good clean easy drinking beers.

 

[obscure]

Actually my second bottle of it tonight but it’s my Kolsch and it’s nice if a tad strong (6.2%) so probably for the best that I chopped the chicken for the curry beforehand.

 

[SMP Brewery]

A mulled wine to start.

 

[dave_77]

Enjoying my latest brew. Somewhere between a Italian Pils and a golden ale maybe. Bit of a user upper..Pils and a bit of Munich. Hops are Perle and Ella hotside and a small dry hop of Talus & Athanum. Floral, spice with a bit of grapefruit easy drinker below 5 %

 

[scottydog.]

I thought this was great ....
