What are you drinking tonight 2024.

[Tanglefoot]

Holed up in our holiday hide away in the far south of Cornwall enjoying the first taste of this Hallertau Blanc steam Pilsener kegged a week ago, after a long drive.
Looking forward to some swimming, fishing, reading, eating and drinking -weather looking promising

My newly casked oh-so-nearly-clear Bitter.
Talk about hop flavour progression, with a twist of light and dark crystal malts.
Tasty.

That didn't last long.
Next up the tail ends of my Hoppy Pale ale of Kent.
Also tasty, but even more dank.
This will do nicely with the pizza.

Cheers bud, yours were great too.
My mates just opened a brewery & taproom and he's give me a few packs of sample hops...
Superdelic T90's
Nectoron T90's
Amarillo T90's

That'll be a treat

A big ‘un and a wee ’un of Samuel Smith Bitter on an evening out in London…

It’s very nice I must say.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

I’m having another Kreik, this time with no ice (I had to fish out the last lot!). My wife is having a frozen daiquiri and an obscene number of roses - love that girl!

 

[Leon103]

Finally at the bar. After the carb test on my west coast dark lager, I am now on a DIPA

Are the roses in the drink?

 

[531Man]

And so on to the smaller cask of my Camden Amber ale.
Citra has disappeared, but the Simcoe is still evident.
Even the later Perle additions.
When newer it was more elegant, but it now suits tonight, which is cold, windy, damp and drizzly.

Not what I expect on the last of May in SE England.

No, she’s holding the stems but her hand is perfectly hidden behind the glass.

 

[Donegal john]

A large glass of Belgian blonde after a nice bbq and some shed beers I didn’t take photos of.

 

[LesTom]

A malty pleasure

 

[dave_77]

This is fab..get a can of you see it..they have it at Malt miller

 

[dave_77]

Altbier will be the last I think

 

[user 49754]

this is nice and hoppy. Originally called green gheko but now it's just hatherwood ipa.apparently the green gecko brand went with the head brewer as it was his recipe. But this is still as good.

 

[Clint]

Another hijacked day but at least the sons room is finished.
Amongst the beer a very decent M&S Belgian cherry wheat.

 

[chopps]

Four Priests - Cross Stout

Lovely coffee notes with a slight milk chocolate finish

Cheers for today's delivery @chopps

Aha! So that order was you, :)
Thanks a lot

 

[foxy]

Been off the grog for a while back on tonight with Poes Boston Bitter, this one I used the hops as per the recipe, still a nice drink but I prefer the one I made with Challenger hops.

 

[pilgrimhudd]

Didn't take pics but last night I tried my new Kiwi Pale and Saison.

Kiwi Pale was Motueka and Taiheke hopped, the Taiheke hops really overpower the Motueka unfortunately and the beer is decent but not spectacular, bit of citrus and resin and quite woody. Quite a bit like Southern Cross which was also overpowered the other hop additions.

Saison was a bit underwhelming, didn't have as much character as others i've brewed. I wonder if it's because I diluted it a bit to bring the ABV down. It's also slightly undercarbed. Still drinkable though and it's something different.

Was the Challenger added at different stages, or only for the full boil bittering as I do?
If you do, what does it give that you like?
I ask as I have quite a fair amount of it in stock.

I like challenger, think it gives a peppery slightly spicy taste.
