What alcoholic drink are you drinking right now?

A bit more mundane :grinning:

Still probably has more flavour than the Chat! The Chat is ok - a bit wishy-washy. It was probably decent 3 or 4 years ago. At least it’s not sour.

It is a very nice tipple for fiver. :+1:

Enjoy.

Feeling like I’ve probably had a couple too many of these at the mo

Today I maked this…


23 litres immediately retitled ANZAC Ale-eye-ants. Brewed with Aussie “Galaxy” and NZ “Rakau” hops. Should come in at about 4.2%.

Here is my current stock ready for consumption (not shown is 25 pints of 2.8% Ginger Beer and 20 pints of 9.1% Belgian)…


With 40 more pints conditioning inside the house (different temperature).

I am in awe of your brewing skills :clap:

I WILL construct an answer to a question I can’t fully comprehend but get the general gist of…

I don’t drink a lot (everything’s relative). But due to climate/time/trips abroad etc I need to build up stocks like a squirrel stores nuts. By the end of May I should have enough to get me through Summer/Autumn which is when I can start brewing again (it’s about temperature control). I then have a hiatus over the darkest days of Winter.
Effectively, there are 6-7 months of brewing per annum.

Looking good.:grinning:

Reminds me. Must do another brew myself. And put some string up for my Hops, which have broken ground and are wondering what to climb.

I’ve just bought a fridge to have a go at lagering a helles.

Will probably be a complete fucking disaster.

Get yourself an InkBird temperature controller from Amacuntz. Cheap as chips but excellent.

Mermaid (IOW) gin and tonic is todays gin o’clock beverage.
It is very fragrant I prefer it with a Lidl low calorie tonic rather than the poncy fever tree recommendation

Todays drinking involved G&Ts made with Bombay Sapphire (my standard go to gin)

Now it’s a couple of pints of my Amarillo packed Pale Ale.

I had a Monkey 47 martini on Friday night, slowly constructed by a hipster over approximately 30 minutes. It was nice though.
