Whats everyone drinking?

I think that fwh gives the beer a more 'rounded' and 'less harsh' bitterness, for mpore flavour and aroma i'm a fan of using the method of adding the last hops when the wort is cooling post boil and is at 80c then turning the chiller off and leaving it mostly 15 mins but sometimes 30 mins so that they steep, not sure if this is something you do already but since using fwh and 80c steeping i've improved my beers a reasonable amount, my last brew was my 1st one with a liquid yeast, i'm keen to see what difference that makes

Twas a good pic BTW (and good to see another library user - I love our local library )

The ASB is a very malty beer to my tastes.
I liken it to the Belgiums, it's not a session beer for me, it's too chewy.
It's very nice though and I do buy it every now and then :drink:

 

[Vossy1]

Just opened the Rodenbach.
I think it's like smoke beers, you either love it or you hate it.
I personanlly like R and that must mean I'll like other sour beers.
Swimbo spat it out :lol:

[Wez]

I'm sulking as I'm back to work tomorrow

[Vossy1]

A bottle of Staffordshire Gold...at 3.8% it's lovely
If I could make a 3.8%er at this level of taste I may be converted from my 5%ers

 

[Bobo]

my youngs kit brew.

 

[Frisp]

Well a revelation. Tonights tipple is TC based on Tesco apple product and youngs Cider yeast.
This is the one I had trouble with last week when I overcarbonated it. I let all the gas out until midweek. Gased it back up to 10PSI threw it in the Monsterator and forgot about it.
Yesterday as Im doing a flash chill experiment with Isinglass. ( thread to follow) i turned the monsterator down to 5C.
I just had a sup of the TC. Man its transformed its bloody loverly.
So tonight I shall be supping 5.8% TC from the monsterator. (restricted to 4 Pints as im back at work in the morning)
Im cooking up a Beef Madass with some potatoes and lentils in it with a couple of Nan for tea so that should go well with the TC :drink:

 

[Vossy1]
