Started on my homemade beer - it really is good !

BunnyHare...
Hmm - bit dark but I suppose the proof of the pudding is in the eating -
or proof of the beer is in the drinking :-))


Enjoy :-)

Aries...
Looks like Guinness to me! How long did it take to make from start to
glass TH and is it easy to do ?

Looks like a knob of ice-cream in a glass of Cola to me. :)

Troy's Human...
It's called "Real Ale".

Obviously of no interest to a lager swigging football fan :-)

Do try to be more discerning FN :-)

I would, if you appreciated a real man's drink. Dry strong cider that is.

Troy's Human...
Cider With Rosie

Laurie Lee

Memories :-)


Aries...
what make of cider do you drink FN ? I find most cider far to sweet even
tho it's classed as 'dry'

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...
Could never get on with the Strongbow, Merrydown or Woodpecker dry. I
prefer Blackthorn from the barrel, that's very dry, but expensive, and
unfortunately the only two pubs I knew around here were both free houses and
went broke. Mind you at between 5% - 6% it's quite strong.

Aries...
I remember having draught cider in Devon yonks ago when Tony and I were
first married but I don't remember now what I thought of it, but probably
not a lot because I was not a drinker in those days LOL


MCC...
Looks flat to me


noreen...

What kind of hops did you use, it looks more like liffey water than

Thank you for the offer, TH.
Don't mind if I do. Mmmm, good!

Troy's Human...
Glad you enjoyed it :-)

Do have another :-)
It was made from a kit - no hops - all that was done before I started. I've
never done beer from basics. Must be very satisfying but oh so much work

frogman...
Indeed it is I used to brew my own and have done a "Full Mash" from
start to finish ,on average it used to take a full day for 40 pints.
The result however was well worth the time involved :-)

:-( Top of the range kit - £16.50 for the 40 pint kit - well worth it :-)


Troy's Human...
Bad photo ! OK it's a dark bitter but not as dark as it looks - nothing
like as dark a liffey water :-)

Aries...
what on earth is liffey water ??

Troy's Human...
Guinness :-)

The river Liffey flows into Dublin :-)

Aries...
Ah LOL


Wrinklie One =?iso-8859-1?Q?=A9?=...
One of the best ales I've ever tasted was made from nettles :-)

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...
Had a bit of a sting did it? :)

Sue...
And it gives you butterflies in the stomach. ;-)
