Best £6 I have spent in a long time
"£6 for a can of beer?? Hell I could brew 40 pints of mild for about £8 and it's better than any of that "craft beer" hipster sh1te the breweries are pumping out these days."
 
Ok that’s 3 Loka Polly posted this weekend. Better track some down.
 
Apart from a lot of the usual we had some Gamma-Ray and Doobie-Duck's Forklift truck. They were very 'cascadey' as I'd describe it, the Gamma-Ray reminding me a bit of Elvis-Juice, the Truck was lighter. But I wasn't blown away by either and I expecting to be because of all the requests I've seen for clone recipes. Got a couple more to try but everyone's gone to bed so I'm back on the usual stuff.
 
Trappistes Rochefort 6. I was expecting better. It just tasted flavourless and dare I say it, bland. Much, much prefer Duvel.

I had their citra/simcoe ipa yesterday which was also very good. Quite sweet finishing for a 6.1% ipa
 
9 hops - flavours might cancel out - I never go more than 2 hops these days.........
 
My partner and I are having a glass of my 'Phoney Peroni' to accompany a bank holiday takeaway, cheers! acheers.
 
Can of 'Draught' Guinness (the one with a widget) that the Father in Law left. This is nothing like the Guinness I remember, although I can't recall having one since the late 1980's. If I'm totally honest, its not good at all. It has this weird thin taste. Perhaps my memory is playing tricks on me. I'd better have a pint of home brew to wash it down.
 
Tracked one down after seeing several posts last week. Really enjoying this, it’s not overly bitter but still a nice dry finish, no stickiness. A cracker. @Clint these guys are practically on your doorstep I think, near Mold.

The range Cider kit. Finally carbonated after 2 weeks in the shed. First one to finish after my return to homebrew. Not bad at all.

Nuts to think they have only been going a year and brew out of a farm
 
Having a couple of halves of my special bitter. Used chocolate mainly for a bit of colour as only had very light crystals and its a bit heavy for this time of year. Dont get me wrong its lovely but feels like the kind of thing I would drink on the opening weekend of the 6 nations.

I just had a Patronus Weissbier that tasted like overly sweet mashed up Shreddies - bloody awful. Then found out hidden very small "ALKOHOLFREI" which is pretty annoying. It's horrible and won't get me drunk. And the back label is on upside down. So whoever put that on might have been drunk on all the booze they sucked out.
