Spent the day moving my ugly DIY kegerator build into a different room and building in a second fridge, shelves etc to make a bar. 75% complete so celebrated with a few pints of Peroniclone (perfect for a sunny afternoon) and amazingly I cracked a bottle of the blackberry and elderberry wine we...

Bit of a cheaty day yesterday. Bro in Law fancied getting into brewing so leant him some kit and walked him through a Coopers Cerveza tweaked a little with some good old Tate&Lyle. Realized whilst I was dusting the old extract equip down that I had a Woodfordes Wherry kit nestling, forgotten in...
