What are you drinking tonight.

Saison that sat on blackberries from the garden for a week in secondary.

This is a couple of months old now and has conditioned beautifully. The blackberry is there at the start and it fades in the finish as the yeast comes through for that classic Saison.

The deep purple colour doesn't come across on the photo

Coconut stout I brewed back in August. The longest I have let a beer condition, very smooth.

I added blackberries to a couple of kit Lagers and I recognise the purple - very nice colour, though I never got much else, TBH. Blackberries seem to me more effort than they add to beer. Making a crumble with them is more their strong point. Apple and Blackberry make a very decent crumble.

This was nearly 2kg of blackberries in a 10L batch and it definitely has a distinct fruity hit. I do think raspberries tend to come through a lot stronger though.

McEwan's Champion again. Might have one of my disappointing brown ales next

This is delicious! Raspberry sour...pity it's a zero alcohol beer!

Had it on draught one lunchtime , not bad but pricy. The overworks sour range is due for release soon.

I also had a McEwans Champion beer, the result then is that I had to sleep the afternoon off, it doe's that to me...

 

[Dode]

It's a toss up between a ginger beer or a blueberry cider tonight?
Oh, stuff it, I'll probably have both

This is what I had at breakfast on Saturday. Malt and wheat with spices, it said. Brewed by Estrella. Tasted like a creamy Estrella with a hint of orange. Avoid.

Edit: the glass was brown.

 

[Clint]

Did you try the Imperial Tonkoko?

My fave!

 

[Clint]

Only a free sample...back at hotel now..battered

 

[Clint]

Well,what a disgrace that was! Back home now ....a nicely chilled pale ale. While Mrs Clint rummages round in the loft for the Christmas decorations...

Trying lots of yummy beers at Pivovarsky Klub, Prague - favourite so far Is Mad Cat Wheat Ale. Thinking I might have to try brewing a wit sooner rather than later...

My East Street stout, which despite only having 2 weeks in the bottle is lovely, if a little strong!
