What are you drinking tonight 2024.

First try of My porter, big head as the gas was on high. Still needs some time, chocolate is very dominant. Made this loads of times before so I am sure it will come good

Must be like looking in the mirror for you

Beer no4 from @dave_77

Next try is My American amber, cascade and talus hops. Clear for a beer that's only in the keg over a week. Hop aroma is strong, this should be good for Christmas

2nd up my most recent Golden ale of Kent brewed with my own East Kent First Gold hops ('cos that's where I live).
Much better sequence; Drunk after rather than before the bitter pale ale blended beer.
Strange that, but I then did expect something of the sort.
So that's how I'll serve them to houseguests over Christmas.

Dangerous stuff this at 8.5%
Tasty though, barley sugar twist followed closely by treacle toffee.
Sweet and bitter and powerful.

And here they are.

Excellent selection

Beers 1 to 4, right to left.

Nothing better than a night with 3 of the best brewers the forum as produced. Geography means we can't be there in person but we talk everyday without fail.

What’s your thoughts on this ? Finishing my wine and thinking on a nightcap. Have to drive tomorrow night

It's a bit...moreish, or maybe that's just to my taste

Nice enough, not my all time favourite but good for it's price range, definitely an acceptable 'end of evening' tipple!

My own, which is far nicer than the stuff I had in one of the oldest, most famous pubs in Ireland.
