strong

Hi All, It may split opinion, but I love strong beers, and with greater abv there seems to be stronger flavour and complexity. Some breweries such as Other Half and Wander Beyond, along with others, have pushed the modern style trends like milkshake IPAs and juicey NEIPAs into the 9-11% realms...

There's 2 main reasons I wanted to start brewing my own Strong lager (8-10% ABV) 1. I really enjoy the taste of the likes of Special Brew and Super Tennant but it is LUDICROUSLY expensive and I am but a mere pauper 2. I have wanted to try and brew my own beers/lagers since doing my Cask Ale...

I had a go at brewing a Belgian style "thumper" so I only needed one pint of a evening instead of the usual (?) two. I plugged in the grain and hops into the Brewers Friend recipe builder and brewed it up. I am very pleased with the outcome as I like a nice strong beer and this certainly fits...
