What are you drinking tonight?

[alikav]

Was at my daughters last night and she'd bought me few wles from Aldi... A bottle of a-hop-alypse now, an American style ipa, a red rye ipa, and a bottle of 4 hop lager. All quite nice, and most of them 99p for 330ml !

A few of my homebrew IPA. A Cloudwater Bourbon BA Triple IPA and a friends "Hop Slam" IPA.

I've been drinking quite a few of these. I like the Red Rye IPA. They have a really nice coffee porter too called Spill the Beans. 99p it's rude not to!

Some Paulaner Naturtrüb and I had some spiked bitterlemon (tanqueray rangpur.. pretty poor excuse for a gin though).

Seeing as all you guys rave about 'Proper Job' I thought it rude not to buy one in Sainsburys today. What can I say. I would be happy to drink that all day. Nice one chaps!

Still on my wheat beer but for quality control purposes only I have retrieved one bottle of my apa from the shed....dry hopped but only been bottled for 3 weeks...will report back. .

Cheers

The apa. ...great aroma and lasting bitterness,solid creamy head...definitely needs longer in the bottle but has potential. ..
Real depth of flavour coming through and crisp,head to the finish and sharp lasting bitterness with an almost smoky back note...interesting. ..

For the football I've just poured a Sharps Wolf Rock Red IPA. I also have lined up a Banks Amber Bitter and a Sharps Sea Fury Special Bitter. All cheap and Asda and I cant remember which but I think 2 of there were £1.

So last night I had a second test bottle of my Brewferm Ambriorix. what a difference a month has made, very smooth and so much better than the 1 month bottle. Highly recommended. the rest are hidden away until the 3 month bottle is ready to drink then after that I will see how it goes. Definitely not a session beer at 6.5%

All the Brewferm kits are good, so long as you can be patient enough to wait at least 6 months....nice one...looks good.

Nice beer this, I've brewed it also recently. I also did a Brewderm Christmas beer, surprisingly it required no sugar whatsoever, FG 1020, and bottled, going to leave this one a year, well Xmas 2017.

I've found my 2014 abdij has gone a bit too plummy tasting for my liking, although still good , for me it was at its best 6-12 months after bottling. I've no idea what it was like at 18 months though because I wanted to keep 6 bottles for 2 years ish so had none spare left to sample. :-?

Tonight a staple diet of my own wheat beer, king kong and my new galaxy hop beer (no details on the latter I smell a competition coming up :grin:)

I just cracked my third bottle this evening of Brewdog double dog IPA, this fermented out to 1.000 give or take, it's near 8.5% and my ears are tingling and my face is glowing! It's too dry, quite astringent, not offensive after three months in the bottle but not particularly nice either, but it's in my grolsch bottles and I want them back! About twenty five to go, I'll just have to keep chipping away till they're gone!

My hoard for this eve.. lovely brews from a great little brewery in Manchester. Bottle conditioned too. Brown Ale is very similar in taste to mine in fermenter so I'm pretty chuffed.

Have to have the right setting to enjoy a good beer though!

Tonight, I'm drinking up some kit beer i made back in April in the expectation of long summer BBQ afternoons / evenings. The kit was done to low-ish ABV with some dry hop additions and was probably Wherry from a Tesco / Wilko sale. It is pretty good, no homebrew twang, but with a slight sourness from excess dissolved CO2 which forms carbonic acid.

I must say that it is not bad after 7 months. Better than I expected, having been an AG brewer for a little while now. Very drinkable.
