    It's the Bell on the other side of the road from the Hat and Feather. Some wild nights in the Hat and Feather in the 90's, what a place that was :). The Bell is still going as it was saved with a buy out which Robert Plant and Peter Gabriel helped with.

    I usually go the Irish pubs Flan Obrien's or Canon if in the centre, they have the footy on as well which is a plus for me. Canon has a great beer selection, last time I was in they had an imperial stout on draught, and some unusual IPA's. If you want something a bit fancy, the Dark Horse is a...

    American IPA

    It's just a beer kit, so no grain steeping or boiling of hops, it came with 6kg of liquid malt, 40g yeast, 180g hops, as well as the priming sugar. Founders Double American IPA by Beerworks. Just a word of warning, mine went off like a rocket and took the lid off the fermenting bucket! It's also...

    American IPA

    Founders Double American IPA has to be my favorite, it's outstanding. I've done the Festival one, the Youngs one, the MYO from the range and the MJ one. If I had to put them in order, in my opinion, it would be 1. Founders Double American IPA, 2. Youngs American IPA, 3. Evil Dog Double American...

    Cherry Sauce in a Simply Export Stout

    Cheers for the replies and advise, I'll try adding to a few bottles at priming stage instead of at the beginning, and trying a few more by adding at drinking stage, see what there like.

    Cherry Sauce in a Simply Export Stout

    Hi, I have a bottle of Costa Coffee Cherry Sauce 1 litre in the cupboard unopened and was wondering can I add it to a Simply Export Stout to add flavor. If so, do I have to boil it before adding to the mixture? I have had a read of the ingredients and it says:- Water, Sugar, Sour Cherry Puree...

    Wilko Hoppy Bitter

    I'm with you on that one, I've done a few of the Wilko's kits. I used to brew short to 19l, but now I use 1kg malt plus 1kg brewing sugar and brew to 23l. I've just bottled a Wilko IPA on Sunday, which I used a M29 Saison yeast with as it was so hot (brewed at 30 degrees), dry hopped with...

    Favourite can kits?

    Youngs American IPA is my fave, and Coopers Brew A IPA (with 2kg of extra fermentables and dry hopped) has been great as well!

    First ever Brew - Cooper’s Brew A IPA

    I bottled this yesterday. I added 1kg brewing sugar and 1kg light malt. I brew in my loft and it's been really warm up there, so it was fermented at around 26 degrees so I was a but worried as it reached 27. I dry hopped after a week, and bottled after another 3 days. Tasted the sample and wow...

    Youngs American IPA

    After bottling my beer, I have kept it warm for 2 weeks. Then I put a bottle in the fridge to try yesterday. Wow, it’s dead nice, by far the best Homebrew I have done and much better than my Evil Dog IPA turned out. It tasted just like Brewdog IPA, full of hops flavour. So impressed!

    Youngs American IPA

    Took a hydrometer reading after 12 days, it was 1004. So I added the hops and it immediately started bubbling again. I give the hops a couple of days and planned to bottle it. However, I took another hydrometer reading and it’s gone up to 1007 and still bubbling away, so I didn’t bottle it as...

    Youngs American IPA

    Cheers for the advise, did that, got it bubbling away again at a constant 20. However, it has stopped bubbling after only a week from start. From what I have read on this forum, it should be taking about 3 weeks to finish not a week. The last brew I did (Evil Dog) took over 3 weeks before it...

    Youngs American IPA

    Bit of advise wanted. Started this kit On Friday, pitched at 21°, SG 1054, set the Inkbird connected to a brew pad to 20° and left. Saturday and Sunday steady bubbling every few seconds. Woke up Monday and the probe has fell off the side of the FV! Temperature of the brew due to the brew pad...
