    As long as you mean on the beer I’ll take that.

    Yeah this is the Black Rock Oatmeal stout with extra chocolate, coffee and rum added. Seriously good. Possibly our best beer ever. I also liked how we got more beer with far less “soup” at the bottom unlike what happens when you’ve added a few dry hops.

    Given that Wellington has turned on a typical late spring day where it’s pissing with rain and 14 degrees I might be persuaded to have one tonight I think.

    Pink Grapefruit IPA - made it a bit stronger than last time but a bit of a “ginger” aftertaste. Decent, but disappointing. The frustrating feeling we did something different and it hasn’t quite worked. 6/10

    Belgian Witbier - lovely, surprisingly dark with some delicious cinnamon aftertaste. A real winner from a style pretty hard to find nowadays. Very refreshing on a warm afternoon. 8/10

    Black Rock IPA - ready tomorrow.

    Hazy IPA - Ready December 26th

    Red IPA - Ready January 3rd

    American APA - Ready mid January.

    I’ve been a busy boy. I should really update my fitness thread to balance out all this beer brewing.

    Really good. Hoppy, flavoursome and nice and strong. A passing resemblance to Panhead Super charger. 7.5/10

    20L/four mini-kegs of American IPA doing their second ferment on a heating tray. Made from an upmarket kit with real hops. Will need a week or two before going into cool storage

    Plum Porter - St Peters Brewery kit. Much lighter than Guinness or a Stout and seriously drinkable - can catch up on you

    Looks magnificent by the way.

    6 weeks in the 5L keg. Had its twin at 4 weeks and was equally good.

    Head is good considering I don't really go for fizzy beer.

    Regrettably I got a bit generous with some of my stouts ( here, check this out ! Brewed it myself ) and ran out. Had the last of them in mid December and it was outstanding. I really must brew a bunch this Summer and age them in time for the colder months !

    @dogmeat agreed, DIPA is more important (after several of them) is a great way to go!
