What are you drinking tonight 2024.

[531Man]

What has been lurking in the fridge for far too long. The Reisling or the duck?

The Canadian Riesling was lurking in the fridge.
The duck almost still had a pulse, as the Chef (SWMBO'd) likes to serve it pretty pink inside!

First off tonight Fullers London Pride, changing with age, not one I would like to age for too long, a nice drop but.

Golden Bitter is the second starter and this is a very nice beer. Good body and flavorful.

Aah, one of those "five minutes" jobs..!!! Good luck!!

I’m having a glass of my NEIPA to sooth my troubled mind. I’m replacing the bi-fold door on our shower and it isn’t as easy as I’d expected. In common with most designs of this type the door assembly slides into a U-channel on either side fixed to the wall by screws in the channel. The one I’m taking out has a slightly different fixing for the U-channels - they have a return that goes behind the tiles and is fixed to the wall behind the tiles. We’re not replacing the tiles and they’re not a common design so I can’t break any. My solution is to run an angle grinder down the shower side of the U-channel and cut through the aluminium return. The plan is working but is slow work, is eating through cutting disks, and is creating an awful mess.

Took the grand-children to lunch today. They seem to have a thing for Toby Carvery at the moment so I was drinking London Pride again. Home now and I’m starting with the last can of Faith while some beers I bought on the way home chill down.

Drinking the last bottle of the first Pale Mild I've ever made from back in April. Quite clear and packed with flavour. 3.0% ABV. For about 24 litres kegged and bottled, the grist was 3.0kg Mild Malt, 0.7kg Light Munich Malt, and 20g EKG hop pellets, and Nottingham Yeast. Will have to make it again.

Woodforde Nelson bitter . Bottled 5th May.
I needed x2 glasses on pouring it out!
What's gone wrong?
Clearish and nice taste though.

It looks a little bit overcarbonated, that’s all. Lovely looking rich foam though

Thanks - yes, quite a head
Purely in the interests of research, I've just had a second one and it's fine.
I really love research.....

a very nice cascade citra Simcoe pale to end the night, oh and a cheeky little magno brandy too. Sleep beckons....

Trying to make crochet a bit more of a manly pursuit by including beer...

I've not had this one before, it's pretty good, quite heavy on the citrusy hops in the finish which isn't 100% my thing, but quite refreshing and light none the less.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

My wife and I, just my wife and I for once, went out for a pub lunch at a lovely country pub we know quite well. I was drinking Master Brew and Spitfire. In the past I’ve enjoyed an occasional Master Brew but really now find it a bit meh!

Home now and I’m having this beer from Salt. It’s just occurred to me I haven’t had a beer with Vic Secret for soooo long, maybe a couple of years. Passion fruit is the dominant flavour with pineapple in support.

View attachment 103294spanish euro lager loosing it's appeal. In my ,'Obama' glass a citra and mosaic IPA. It's not bad at all Ehh it like being at home, the @micklupalo post of a pint of BFG didn't help! Hey ho fun in the sun, there is some good stuff here after all!

Where abouts are you? I'm near Málaga, and struggling to find nice beer apart from in town itself. Have to order Petrichor from Mahou online to get anything like nice!!

That's very nice on draught....

Another beer from Salt, this Alpaca is very hoppy and quite flavoursome.

As the sun’s come out I’m having a Saison.

 

[Alastair70]

Evening all. I’m checking out the Guinness in The Conrad in Dublin.
It’s rather good.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

This is a new one on me, a strong (6.5%), oak-aged Crafty Hen. It’s actually very nice and puts me in mind of the I&G whiskey barrel aged beer although without the whiskey! . Maybe I should add a drop of whiskey

We're between Alicante and Murcia, the stuff I was drinking was the tyris stuff that Aldi used to knock out, but seems much better now. Been to real ale pub today so some nice beers. Managed to avoid any Madri pubs so far.lol . Mahou/founders is always a backup.

I can't honestly think of a single instance in life where it's not made better by the addition of whiskey!

Last nights bevvie included the 1982 Sierra Nevada clone kindly sent by @phildo79.
First off, apologies, Mrs70 has clearly put my Guinness glass through the dishwasher and the head retention has suffered.
Lovely clear beer, bready malts and gentle noble like hop aromas. The flavour is surprisingly malt forward, bready but with soft caramel notes. The finish is dry and it washes off the palate leaving you reaching for another big swig. Lovely brew mate, thanks for sharing it
