Beer?

[Daddy Pig]

Appropriate beer for guitar practice....

Yep, that's defo a London yeast used, similar to a beer I made a number of years ago. It's Ok enough, some subtleness and not much by way of hops. It has simcoe and toyamadori hops, the latter ive never heard of or tried before. Thankfully no armpits were used in the making of this beer... very easy to drink at 8%, far too easy in fact.

Too many of these and I'll be all the closer to knockin on heavens door rather than playing it!

If you want a beer that wears its 10.5% lightly, give this one a go

They're doing no wrong at the moment

Saw a can of that this afternoon but opted for other things

I'll probably miss it now

Yes, know what you mean. Been trying lots of new stuff lately but couldn't see the point of posting on here because they disappear almost as soon as you find them. Suppose the breweries are creating an artificial scarcity to keep the market bouyant.

Going oldskool today. Baltic temps here and this is just the warmer needed.

Never heard of it! Seems to be Japanese, but likely grown in Norfolk.

More traditional stuff.

Snuck one in as I was hiding from the cold: Deya (a Cheltenham Brewery) Steady Rolling Man. An American pale ale, with a strong fruity front and very little bitterness. Second beer this week that's had me thinking of mangoes. Mango and grapefruit juice might make a nice wake up drink for breakfast, Deya make a nice wake drink for the early evening. A beer that drinks itself.

I've tried 28 beers this month. This one is simply a leap beer. Added together, that makes 59.

Edit: no it doesn't: 60

Is there any difference to that beer and an 'American quad'? I have one in the cupboard and was wondering if would be traditional or hopped to hell...

I'd guess you're right - American hops and probably a US yeast strain, rather than a Belgian strain.

Tonights starter... worth it for cappage alone...

Not bad pale ale, smooth and silky, fresh hops on the nose and a little bitterness lingers on the palate. Refreshing....

Edit start of the case of 8 Dutch beers I've taken delivery of... good start!

Beer mail!!

Something went wrong with the order, so I got two of each where you supposed only to get one of each. Did pay for all of them though.
