Bit rough when your drinking pints like its going out of fashion :teasing-tease:

It was actually pretty good for the ABV it didnt taste like it :think:

Was heavy but still easy to drink...I must have been thirsty :))

Yeah I agree, my 2 brother in laws swap in summer from heavy stouts and ales (sippers) to lagers and pilsners in summer for quaffing. It's hard work chewing through a heavy Belgian in summer.

Hmm I just realised I have not brewed yet this year 8-} Infact last one I put down was the 20th december :shock: Used to put one down every 2 weeks. I got plenty of rum but I been out of beer for a week and bought a carton yesterday so I can have 1 a night now :))

Yeah same. Got my still in march 2012, have not bottled a beer since. Used to bottle every 14-21 days... Now it's all about the liquor:-)

Hmmmm, I must be the odd one out, I still brew beer as much as I used to, now I just distill as well :D

lol so you now drink twice as much? :laughing-rolling: I been meaning to put a beer down soon and will prob after this next runs. I can do 42lts at a time so thats handy, Prob could get 63lts out of it if I tried but havnt pushed it that far yet 8-}

How the hell do you find the time? Maybe when I finish the next degree I'll have more time but my free time vanishes like a rat up a drain pipe. Perhaps you can run a class in time management as well? :-)

I only do kit beers with little additions :crying-blue:

Takes an hour to put 2 brews down, then another hour to keg and clean up :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Distiling takes more of my time but beer is more of my drinking ;-)

Yeah I'm a bottler - sterilizing and capping takes triple the time brewing does.

takes me 4 hrs from set up to clean up but alot of that time you dont have to be there as its mashing or boiling so can go do other crap. I have done 63lts 42lts of PA and 21lts of pils in 4.5hrs, Using 2 MT and the HLT as a second boiler. That was a work out as the pils had 2 decoction steps while I was trying to heat strike water for steps on the PA and had to do it on the stove inside so was running in and out the house to check temps and not burn the decoction :laughing-rolling: Wouldnt do it again any time soon.

A ginger beer , should be about 4.8% ABV
