I've had a bottle of Bohemian Pilsner in my brew fridge since when I brewed it this time last year! Thought it was about time to try it..
Head is very meringue like and the lager is much better than it was last year. Time has improved this beer significantly.

I’m having an Amber Alert bitter but not before I try my first ever batch of Brut IPA. As things stand today I can’t say I’m a big fan of Brut IPA, at least not the one I brewed, it puts me in mind of hop water. There’s no malt flavour, it’s very dry, not very bitter, and even the hops don’t seem to shine. The cloudiness is actually a billion minuscule bubbles.
This is better, much better!

I'm guessing that's not your hand Mr H?
I’m not altogether sure. Apart from the hops not shining the rest is pretty much what is expected from the style (makes me wonder why I chose to make it!I'm guessing that's not your hand Mr H?
).Maybe it needs another week (or a drain), we’ll see.

Busy day today, brewing a Steam Pilsener with Tettnang and Hallertau Blanc
and kegged this Olicana pale ale so a little taster was in order.
Some sweet caramel from the Plumage Archer with grapefruitey bitterness and aroma from the Olicana.

I’m having a Pirate Pale now as the BBQ heats up. The brew shed has had to work hard today to keep my beer at cellar temperatures - little trooper! 
A nice chocolatey stout, but it's bit too thin for it to be a stellar stout.

Looks sunny down south (only really good pint on my recent Odyssey was Harveys Best Bitter) but thunderstorm here in Wolves but a bottle of Holdens is of some comfort!

Haven’t had this in years but saw it on Amazon basically a ‘Greek Brandy’ (in the sense that it is distilled wine) which is perhaps a tad unfair as it’s very much a drink in its own right. It’s very smooth hints of raisins and orange just very pleasant.

I know the reason for the clean machine hands.........
Mr H, I reckon you mash-in by hand mixing, keeps the hands trim, the skin exfoliated and the undernails scoured out.
I do the same with bread making, sometimes the nails are so ingrained with mechanical grime I find I have to mix up a dough of wholemeal flour bread.
Think about it.

Mine and SWMBOD'Ss preprandial.
Phew it's been a bit scorchio today.
Gardening for both of us (different gardens), then I've been on an evening 11 mile cycle ride.
Like I needed the exercise!
Mine's my Camden Amber ale, her's is an Italian Primitivo before the lamb is ready.
Checking the wine out as it was, on offer in Tesco, and our daughter is very fond of a Primitivo.

The turborg gold went down well today, although this one at the beach lacked a it of head.
Enough Pirates, time for my favourite Red.
Well I'm pi55ed as a wheel...
Wheels get pi55ed? I’m getting there, I have the last of that bottle of wine in my glass.
