What are you drinking tonight 2021?

As I'm just beginning my beer brewing journey it might be a good idea for me to try something like this? Not too heavy I guess. The temp control is a problem though in this weather ha ha!

A great style to try if you don't have temperature control or not sure about yeast pitching rates and the like for lagers, is a Kölsch. The Crossmyloof Kölsch yeast is pretty forgiving and makes a great tasting light ale that, if you can wait long enough, can be stored cold and becomes more lager-like over time.
The malt and hops are very similar to lager styles, the yeast is slightly more forgiving.
Go for it!

I am joe taxi in 10 minutes so have been a good boy, only half an hour and i will be partaking going to have a taste of my latest keg pilsner smash with saaz

Best things come to those who wait, so the saying goes.

I had to go back and check that one. Oooh lala!

Anyway, on to the first sample of my ESB/English IPA... I probably should've washed the glass because all I can smell is the previous beer... But this is pretty tasty...

Feeling a bit off after 2nd vaccine shot yesterday, so nice beer and fish and chips... Much better than paracetamol !

Tried to offer some of my bramble cider to the other halfs bro in law (he's a cider drinker) but to no avail. I guess it's mine then

Having had a few beers I want to dance around the garden, wife wants to talk about plates. Sometimes we’re so in tune and other times….

Anyone fancy a dance?

Picked one of these up from my local Lidl last week. It was so good I went back and cleared the shelf.

So the hubby cloned this Brewdog Coffee Imperial Stout, and he’s hammering it. Gonna be a fun night - it’s 8.4%!

Must admit it’s very nice - he put some ground coffee in it. BUT - note to self! This method clogs up the bottling wand! Find another way!

I think he has a Brewdog problem!

I think brewdog are the ones with the problem.

Try using coffee beans. Just as you would dry hop.

Tanglefoot tonight, plus a couple of bottles of Duvel later.

In 4-8 weeks I'll be back on the homebrew, depending on conditioning times

Back to the caravan for some beers in the warm sun.

First up my sabro porter.

Picked up some beers from a new brewery, Electro Brewery down @Cwrw666 part of the world - cardigan.

Just finished the neipa. Not the best neipa but not the worst. He is ex brew York brewer. Not enough aroma and flavour punch to be a neipa and a bit of diacetyl but pleasant enough.

Now and again. Others who try it notice it more than me. I guess I know it's there.

Got excited when I saw the swing top bottle ...

Unfortunately the influence of the Dutch accountants is most prominent in the non-taste.

 

[Nottsbeer]

Am relaxing in the garden with a well earned pint of Festival Steam Beer. Bottled about 6 weeks ago and tasting very nice. I also have a Festival Landlord bottled on the 18th March. That is ok but has a distinct kit taste to me.

Welsh APA, really lovely, target and cascade hopped.
