What are you drinking tonight 2020.

Glad you enjoyed it mate :hat:

I knew I would of enjoyed it, I already got the lemon during the week. I don't have Citra so I am going to sub with Azacca....

 

[Mrhandsome]

One from last night. I'm in love with my new 1l stein, I can fit a whole 660ml bottle in a glass finally. Makes bottling day easier!

Yes, I think GS is much better on draught, one of my go-to pints, if I see it!!

Tbh I only used citra because I had it in the freezer, but any fruity/citrusy hop will do the job. If choosing hops specifically for this I would have probably picked ekuanot or sorachi ace to really compliment the lemon. I really want to brew an orange version of this with orange zest rather than lemon and amarillo and mandarina bavaria hops.

Cheeky brewday beer from Beer52

Nice, smells fruity, but a little bit thin.

Having @samale RedX IPA

Pours a hazy reddish brown, head is nice and light brown, which is very interesting for this light of a beer.
Aroma is lemon citrus, hoppy resinous, kind of a wheat twang and some nice fruity malt.
Taste is a really smooth balanced hoppy yet malty flavour, the hoppiness is not very clear to me and its a bit fruity, orange might be the closest, piney and resinous but not overly strong, the bitterness is light but lingers to the end. The malt is sweet and quite flavourful, toast with orange jam, a bit of caramel and some raisins or dark dried stone fruit as it warms up there is a hint of alcohol and the malt gets stronger than the hops.
This is a really good version of a red IPA. It has a really big unique fruity flavour that is quite a treat to drink. I think the hops may be a bit mellow on this as it is likely a couple months old, and that would be my one recommendation to up the hops a bit. But again I think its is very likely they have just faded over time and this is one to drink fresher. I am curious about the recipe, specifically the malt bill. Is this a entirely redX? I think the hops are more classic american ones, like cascade, amarillo or chinook but maybe I am wrong.
Thanks for the beer! This is a really good recipe for a red IPA.

Just got back from shopping and saw this stout on the shelf. I can’t remember if I’ve ever tried it although it does look familiar. It smells really good, tastes good too

Following @Mrhandsome's lead and using the maßkrug for a couple of bottles of my red IPA.

Toffee winter ale from Aldi, sweet and toffee flavoured, does what is says on the bottle

Also tried the Brewdog ALD IPA out of curiosity, not bad at all

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

An old favourite, makes me happy ☺

Zider... Wild ferment of Harry Masters Jersey and Ellis Bitter blended with some oak aged Foxwhelp. Bone dry and excellent with some dim sum from the Chinese supermarket.

Paulaner Hell.

Spelling was awful! I do love the names of cider apples though.

Really happy you enjoyed it. It was all redx malt 6.5kg with 100g each of centennial El Dorado Amarillo.
I have another one made which I mixed with pilsner malt

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Still on the stout.
