@Leon103 here it is..

high mash temp, low grain bill. In the end I upped the grain bill and just let it ride, happy if it over fermented and came out anywhere up to 2%..

OG ended up at 1.027, FG at 1.021..

Brewed for International Womens Day. Thankfully, no bearded haze-bros involved.


Actually, it's made with hops from female operated hop farms.

I bet they are going to go down well, i love stout.

Both went down very easily!

Night cap time, needs the smallest splash of water then the aroma really soars.
I love how the unfiltered whisky experience lies totally in the hands of the drinker.

How Peaty is it ?

Not very, it’s a classic Speyside. This one has loads of vanilla with done hints of coconut in it. It’s a corker.

Parial to Speyside and fortunate to live a few miles away from Auchentoshan so do try a few of them as well, but I also like Irish as well

I had a few good whiskeys tonight the best was a dingle single pot triple distilled in Maderia casks at 57.6% that was amazing vanilla and caramel in abundance. Starting to really get into good whiskey

I can recommend penderyn Maderia cask. It started Mrs DOJ & I on our journey into good whisky. Previously we were exposed to bells and teachers which to us now seem like the Fosters of Whiskies. Dalwhinnie 15 , Glenkinchie 12 and Balblair 12 are all ones we like. Clynleish 14 we'll not be repeating. Spayside light and Delicate are the ones we prefer. The nearer to the bottom left corner of the Whisky Flavour map the better

American Pale Ale is the first cab of the ranks, well ended up as six counting the dead soldiers. Can't say they were enjoyable, and I really tried.

Nice lacing and somewhat hoppy but these aren't for me.

Final beer of the night, a country cousin English pale ale, (Nancy Naylor Landlady) lovely hop-in-the-mouth flavour, now I know I have had a drink. Delicious.

Thanks.
Strange it didn't ferment down further

First taste of my latest Helles and I’m getting apple off-flavours yet again . I’m going back to the drawing board with lager yeasts. I suspect I’m coming up short on pitch rate, this was the second pitch from the ‘Double D’ starter overbuild. Either the vitality wasn’t as high as I expected or I got the numbers wrong somewhere with either starter.

The Cali Common that has been sitting in the corny for quite a few weeks shares that trait and its still cloudy. Its drinkable but not what I want so I think I'm going to dump the rest of the keg (nearly full).

Just read a book about making a Helles and I'm looking forward to my next attempt.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

My first post today but definitely not my first beer. This is my ordinary bitter and I definitely need it, it’s sooooo hot!

 

[dlowe1992]

Thanks.

Yeah. I was trying to come up with a recipe that gave it every chance of the body of a normal beer. I'm happy with the result on that front.
Next time I do one I'll scale down the grain bill so it's more in line with the David Heath style recipe. Interesting to see if it has any impact on the flavour / mouthfeel.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

I’ve had enough bitter for now so I had an imperial and now a regular stout.

 

[pilgrimhudd]

Nights finished this morning so I'm going to have a few tonight, staring with this beauty, a Pilotgig from Keltek brewery in Redruth, dark ale, initially thought it was too sweet but the roast malts definitely come through and the silky mouthfeel makes it very drinkable for 5.2%.

 

[pilgrimhudd]

This cornishmans happy, cali common and a pasty.

I could do with a pasty to go with a couple of Pirate Pale
