i got these babies for £24 :party:

the sell by date is march 2011....

and they were just 1 mile from my front door....

i did also give the guy a bottle of wurzels to sample.... :

now ive just gotta get some recipies to adapt them into a decent brew, with the addition of some grain,hops .. :hmm:

i have just brewed one of these with a kilo dme,
a cupful of demerara sugar ...
and a hop tea made with with 50grams of hallertau hops [from rob the malt miller] steeped in 2 pints of hot water for an hour the hops smell fantastic :party:
i will probably dry hop it with another 50g of hops as well ... :hmm:

this brewing thing is getting addictive ....
