What are you drinking tonight 2021?

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Just comparing mine own WCIPA to a Life & Death - an interesting comparison as they are both 6.5% abv
Mine is intentionally more old school and darker with 9.5% caramalt, but lacking in bitterness even with 65 IBUs, when you drink them side by side

Lacking bitterness, 65 IBUs.

Masking up for not drinking at the weekend by starting with my dipa. Not much left of this, luckily I am brewing tomorrow to refill the kegs.

Another beer from Time&Tide but lazily named - what you having for lunch? “Ham sandwich”.

7.4% NEIPA. Looks a little oxidised but doesn’t taste it.

Another Summer Breeze but this one is different...can you see it?

This one was brewed by @samale.

Now it’s always a bit daunting asking the architect of a beer to give their opinion on your attempt at it so I should start by saying you’re safe @samale , you’ve done a great job!

There are some differences but this might be because I update the recipe quite often. Yours is slightly more bitter but I like that even though I’ve backed off a little with later versions. The hop balance is slightly different, perhaps slightly more Citra forward than Galaxy forward but this is subtle and honestly, who is going to complain about Citra

I think you’ve done a great job here bud, well done!

(Now you need to try the latest version)

Not a bad drop. I followed your original recipe. It contained 100g each of citra and galaxy. I will make the up to date version soon enough. I just need some galaxy

Cracked this now. These new cheaper tall boys from tesco are lacking something. Hops!!!!

Can not remember the last time a drainpoured but got this from Aldi..
Never again it had a Liquorice and vegetative smell/taste maybe was off but not going to find out.
I have had some good beers from Aldi as long as you do not expect full on hop monsters but this one was dire

Bottling up my doppelbock bock. Just under the lower limit of 7%
1.072 - 1.019
Taste's really good. Not often I drink the sample jar

First time trying fullers golden pride, local shop had a few bottles in. Is it getting warm in here!!

 

[ChrisM]

My extract brew following the Graham Wheeler recipe for Taylor's Landlord. Much better than my first attempt, and still almost completely unlike Taylor's Landlord, or indeed any pale ale you care to mention. There is very little extra light DME out there!



The hops aren't quite right, a bit less for bittering and more for aroma methinks, but still an OK bitter. Enough spare in my latest order of supplies to try the BIAB and see if I can do justice to the great man's recipe on the third attempt!

I think you might get away with calling a 6.96% ale as 7%

This is more like it

Nice dry refreshing Saison after a quick walk in the sun. Need to brew a Saison myself, lovely

 

[Clint]

A SAISON! is essential!

 

[lupinehorror]

lucky i'm not tiring of stout as tonight it's...my stout.
a couple of 330ml brewdogs for a hint of variety. got a friend who's a share holder. they're seemingly having a virtual AGM next month.
that could get messy.

 

[Spit]

Coopers stout tweaked a bit.
This one's not going to touch the sides.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

United Utilities special it's on tap in our house.

 

[Clint]

After the worrying incident with my tube heater I'm glad to say all is calm at 19c...I'm now anticipating the fermentation...which should have been under way.
Anyway...I've had another #4 Tribute..which needed gas...this might get brought in and primed. Now a choccy stout which is very nice and has lots of gas!

Starting with the big guns tonight, this 8% DIPA from Good Things. It’s quite intense but to me is lacking the balance, juiciness and smoothness of @dan125 ‘s DIPA.
