Got order wrong golden goose next

Next up green gecko good bitter finish but again lacking that hop punch
Cider.
Or, more precisely, leftover slops from an experiment: 6 release candidates from a preliminary press at the start of August, the winner of which will decide what we do with the 200-ish litres we pressed in September. Obviously no carbonation yet and just out of secondary, but a good deal more drinkable than last year's effort. Looking forward to 2021 already...

Just finished a winter saison shared by @samale. Only beer I have had this evening so I savoured it over an hour or so. Very enjoyable beer 
. Dark Brown, nicely carbonated with fruity Brett aroma. Saison yeast,malt and Brett all tasted great together. It tasted dry intially, and then a slight perception of sweetness which I wasn't sure if it came from the malt, higher alcohol or something to do with the Brett flavours. Really enjoyed it. What malts did you use and what was the FG?

Thats the recipe I followed, it finished at 1.008 making it 7% abv. The recipe predicted 1.005 so I played it safe with the carbonation. I really would of liked more carbonation I am hoping it improves in time. The beer is now nearly 5 months old. It's in the bottles 8 week's.Just finished a winter saison shared by @samale.

Excellent, might have to have a go at this one at some point..could have been the flavour from the prunes that gave that slight sweetness.

After the longest, and most severe lock down in the world, took a drive to the rugged south west coast of Victoria. Visited two breweries while away, and listening to my wife, that a tasting paddle of 5 shot glasses, 2 schooner's and a pot of beer added up to 8 drinks and therefore makes me an alcoholic. It was good to get back and drink my own beer.

That bottle and a handful more were bought on slurp.co.uk. Who provided Immaculate packaging and delivery times. I was buying a couple of Christmas presents and these helped me get to minimum order value for free delivery, which unfortunately is quite high.
To follow that start, I'm taking another large step away from my usual choices of style to continue my 'research' of Belgian beers beyond dubbels and quadruples. To that end, I bought a few bottles of this and the Braun on my latest supermarket order with a view to also reusing the bottles.

Ok so I've had time now to give all three of these a proper listen, and... I'm sorry but they did nothing for me. I'm not saying it was bad by any means, but it just didn't connect with me. The guy has a good voice, there's no denying that, but in general vocals are probably the last thing that grabs my attention when I listen to music, I'm a guitar and drums man personally.
Another thing I found interesting was looking at some of the YouTube comments on these songs, at how "dark/haunting/chilling/depressing" they were. Maybe I've been listening to too much Cult of Luna, but these songs sounded almost upbeat to me
