20% of rain tomorrow or 80% of sunshine and then no rain for the length of the bbc predictions. We need some rain, put so many plants in garden and we go away in just over a week.
What are you drinking tonight 2022?

Beer & a band within walking distance
Ha ha,
now you're talking.
Mild and bitter was a classic working man's drink.
And you know how much I'm into beer blends.
Strangely I’m enjoying this beer more than last time. Might be because I’m in need of beer tonight 
Thanks for the compliment.
Yes it is stunningly clear, when it did 'hang a haze' for a while.
But then it was various generations of recovered Nottingham yeast, so I shouldn't really be surprised.
Talking of recovered yeast, there have been discussions of how many generations to safely use, not beyond 3 seems to be a general recommendation.
This beer has contributions from brews using gens. 6, 7 and 8!
Yes, I am anally retentive about sterility.
And I have no idea what 'brett' tastes like.

No, just pale malt. It was a user-upper batch really, and probably the reason it was thin without it
You’ve gotta have…
Glad you enjoyed it. Will make this again with a different mash schedule to get more body, and maybe play with slightly different hops@Nottsbeer dunkel! Finally got round to it, a nice beer, little aroma but nice flavours, malty, toasty and sweet. As you say, a little thin perhaps for the style but I've enjoyed it. With a bit more body it would be great.
Again, having an issue with pics..

Definitely inspired me to brew a dunkel or dunkelweizen in 3 brews time, schwarzbier and paler ernest and bramling x pale first!

Just joining the dots from last night.
Some bars get it right

We have arrived in Ilkley for the beer festival and are having a cheeky Wetherspoons before we go in. Husband and I are having a shipyard to go with the food.
Having a precious falling by north brewing - fruited sour with honeyberry, hibiscus and lemon.
Bottling day.
Drinking the FG tester of my lighter most recent Pilsner (Dortmunder looking at Palmer' book).
4.3% now, will be 4.6% when the priming sugar fermented and conditioned up.
Made it lighter so me and my guests don't fall over too early when hopefully having garden B&Bs.
The 1st Pilsner drinking now is 5.25% and too tasty for its own good. And as it's not conditioned, its 'in cask' so no bubbles to slow down its consumption.
Having so much fun, forgetting to post.
The son and DIL have popped up to the hotel to check in. I’ve recently had a verdant x unity IPA, and I’ve now got a vocation death by cherries sour. Both very nice.
I’m on halves and thirds by the way. Wouldn’t be able to last the day with pints!
