A pint of Rabbit Island, 2 weeks in the keg and this is starting to condition nicely

"Capper Chaos" IPA by @pilgrimhudd

Nice fruity aroma jumped out the bottle when I opened it. Decent head on pouring though it didn't stick around so much. Lacing so-so. Bit of chill (?) haze but I can hardly talk

I don't get much aroma though that could be more me than the beer. Taste is nice - quite bitter, though that's fine with me. Quite citrusy in a grapefruity orange peel kind of way. I get a bit of grassiness - not enough to spoil it but I wonder if the dry hop was maybe a bit OTT.

Weirdly I'd say it's actually a little bit under-carbonated - weird for two reasons: Firstly because I generally prefer lower carbed beers so they're not so bloaty, and secondly looking at your brew day thread the amount of priming sugar looks bang on to me so it's hard to understand.

Overall I like it - I think your recent 3C's IPA was better but I'd happily have another pint or two of this. Skol

Ohhh nice, I'm brewing a Czech Amber lager after the next brew.
I'm brewing a DIPA this weekend.
My brew schedule is set for the next 3-4 months.

Nice! I have a busy schedule too - but it could change depending on my drinking choices!

Not many of these left in the beer store now. For a long time, I've rated this as a 'go to' medium strength stout. It's just so easy going for 7% and has a really rounded flavour with no real weaknesses.

Summer Breeze, this has now hit six weeks in the keg and while it was actually rather drinkable straight after carbonation I do think it has improved over time with a slightly more mellow flavour sadly I only have a few glasses left in the keg but have the ingredients for a fresh batch soon. So thanks again to Hazelwood for sharing this recipe.

Six weeks is probably where it reaches it’s best

You’re welcome, I love beer and if others like what I make I’m even happier!

Had the house pilsner with my takeaway and now halfway through the main event.
This West coast from @dan125
This is excellent. Beautiful beer, right up my street. The aroma and flavour is bang on point. Not overly bitter with a nice clean mouthfeel.
@dan125 next time send more than 1.

Ps - what is the recipe for this?

I don’t think so, you’ve obviously just got everything right and the yeast is having a party!

My newer kegland one it's obvious...well more obvious than the reconditioned keg

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

A dry Irish Stout next. Also nice.

 

[RPeters]

Time for a Cloudwater Dipa. Half a ton of trub in it but tastes wonderful. Never had a bad beer from them

Only ever had this with wheat beers and stout!

 

[dave_77]

Next up northern monk Faith. Haven't had this for a while. Nice enough

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Keep ‘em coming, I’m loving all these beers. Happy Friday folks!
