.... continuing with the Orval theme I got some delivered today along with a few dry-hopped Saison Dupont. Won't be drinking them until Christmas.
What are you drinking tonight 2020.

Trying another bottle of the stove top, the cock up it tastes very much like Mac Q with that thick malty backbone and every bit as strong could do with just a touch more ibu’s and more head
This was a part of a gift from work, so I got stuck in while I was kegging and bottling this evening.
First up the much anticipated citra SAISON! from Banbeer....a clone of a bottle I sent him!
Bottle opened with a nice fizz and it pours with a nice fluffy head..which is retained as I drink...
Spicy,citrus aroma and taste to match!! It's got that SAISON! flavour! It's very refreshing and surprisingly easy drinking at 6%! Well I'd know that wouldn't I!
It's a great beer! Well...what else can I say except I'm chuffed that someone likes my efforts,has sent me some to try and has brewed more!
Thank you Banbeer!!

Citra ale and just for a change a different view!
Tonight I'm having a walk on the wild side, a bottle of Merlot from Chile.
Very warming

I'm still enjoying the non Brett version. My patience is not very good, I keep thinking I should try the Brett version. I had a bottle and I think there was a very slight difference but trying hard not to have one until my birthday in DecemberI was looking at that recipe earlier today. Love Orval, would be very interested to hear how the bretted version turns out
Virtual pub quiz again due to lockdown V2, having a Bank's Mild in a proper Banks glass!
I love mild. Even the macro stuff in cans.

Just on my second glass of Wilko Cerveza which I brewed back on 26th June 2020.
It has definitely improved with age and is a really smooth crystal clear lager style beer.

GH brown porter....
Probably my last for tonight, a sweet stout.

Follow up with my BIPA.. 
I do like a BIPA!
Shepherd Neame Strong Pale Ale. Hadn't seen this before, was hoping it was going to be a historic type of thing, but it's actually a pleasant, but unremarkable, cascade (I think) pale ale. The Shepherds yeast does add that signature taste though, so it is ok.

A pleasant surprise while judging the dark beer month competition. @cellarbrew Saison.
Pours a deep golden colour with good carbonation, nice light white head which last the full glass. A nice well balanced beer the yeast character isn't jumping out of the glass. Slightly spicy, not as dry as previous Saison I have tried. Nice bitterness, very good clarity.
I would be interested to see what yeast you used and the numbers you hit. Thank you for sending
Enjoyed while watching the master's

Just had your gifted bottle of CCC and I agree, great citrus nose to it and I really liked the hoppy flavour and aroma, a well thought out and executed beer sir. Slight hiss on opening and thought it would be a little flat but no, a nice head, great retention and lacing.:hat:
Cheers mate and thanks for sharing.
