I'm trying my Amber Ale, which has only been bottled for a week, primarily to check it's not complete ****, as I had fermentation issues and also missed my FG by 4 or 5 points.
Another new brew for me,a pale ale from another brewery I have not come across before,the steam box brewery wiltshire,very nice a subtle citrus/fruity taste,no mention of the hops and a session ale weighing in at 3.8 ABV,certainly buy it again
Wilko cervesa. Not bad. Will be much better cold but not a bad 1st brew in 30 years
Festival stag. Looks good but slight metallic taste as an after taste. Less so than a week ago. I may have over carbed this.
The large glass is a Partial biab and muntons extract brew. Supposed to be a ghost ship style but far too dark. But it has a slight sweetness to it and it is absolutely georgeous.
All have good head retention and are virtually clear.
Well chuffed
Have a single hop full ag in the fv (Amarillo).
Bottle of Cooper's IPA, my first ever brew! Flat as a pancake, but perfectly drinkable and very clear, and it hasn't had the full two weeks cool conditioning yet.
I've had a homebrew IPA I got in a bottle swap with an old school friend. He's making some damn good stuff and I've told him he needs to get on here too.
Followed up with a Gulden Draak, Belgian dark strong ale from the Lidl sale a few weeks back. I'm quite enjoying having a mega strong Belgian beer (this is over 10%) as my beer 'dessert'. Day off work tomorrow for my wife's birthday, I think I'll need it!
we moved house last year and the movers gave my pressure barrel full of bitter a box all of its own, it was great. But yes, terrible for the process of brewing!
Had a few Adnams Lighthouse ales last night as they were on sale in Morrisons for a ã1 a bottle, they were ok, nothing special but very drinkable. They just lacked something. good as session beer though at 3.6 or 3.8%
Started with this - Black Market Gose with Peaches. A sour wheat ale. Gadz. Absolutely honking. One mouthful and the rest was added to the sewer system. Not my thang.
