The second meeting is tonight at 1930 in the brewery club. I appreciate the notice is a bit short but it'd be good to meet any fellow forum members from the area. the group website link is below. http://yorkbreweryhomebrewclub.tumblr.com/

Having brewed some reasonably hefty beers recently I though I should go for a session ale in the hope that weaker beer would be ready for a potentially messy boxing day party. I was aiming for something along the lines of Hop Back GFB or Hopdaemon Golden Braid and I hope I've got something...

On a pleasant trip to the pub a few months ago I sampled my first and only pint of Greene King Old Golden Hen and was really impressed, particularly with the fresh and fruity hop flavour, and decided I would have to make something in that kind of genre. I read on their website that they use...
