onto @strange-steve weizen bock clone, this one is definitely getting better with time and is a really good recipe. the alcohol really kicks when it warms up.

I have a stoneware Lowenbrau pint pot from the Wrexham Lager Brewery. Interesting your date of 1890...the brewery was founded in 1882..don't know if they brewed it there...
I've had a look,it's in the bathroom with toothpaste tube in it,it's got a date of 1383...it's not that old though,a commemorative piece probably.

This was one of my most interesting and unusual beers, and it has aged very well. Mine is currently about 7 months old and I stuck one in last months freestyle competition and it scored the same as my second place Orval clone thumb.
 
I do have a bottle of something different and now may be the time to break into it.

I love that but have a dilemma... should I buy a pile for £1.20 in Belgium and reduce the number of beers i can't get in the uk... Oh sod it i'll pay £2.50 from Tescos and stock up with triple karmeliet instead for £.1.30 instead of paying £3 from waitrose :laugh8:
 
well after my piraat triple hop (10.5%) I had my last face off sour 😭 so to console myself I opened a risky business 2 or 3 (I've lost count which one it is). Oh there was a brewdog duopolis in there somewhere. So I think i'm finishing off with this....

If u guess this you can have 1 of all of my beers in stock. - closing date? - when I spill the beans 🤪
 
I'm sampling my first three AG brews (they've all been in the bottle for a little over two weeks, a blonde ale, an oatmeal stout and a bit of a mish-mash of a 'light' ale) and all was going rather well until I rounded it off with a couple of bottles of Coopers Innkeepers Daughter (the last kit I brewed) which tasted like something found congealed in the bottom of a wheelie bin on a hot summers day by comparison.

I think that rather settles it for me, my first three AG brews (which look a bit 'muddy' as I hadn't bothered with the wonder that is protofloc to begin with, and hence no pic) are infinitely better than probably the best kit I've ever done, I'm all grain forever now.
