Good work Tipsy. I am planning on doing another BIAB early in the new year so, quality willing, there will be a bottle in the post for you.

Oliver

Bottles in post this lunchtime. Hoppy hefe, black sheep and London pride inspired ales, pretty sure that's what I sent anyway. If the caps don't say hh, bs and lp let me know and I can decipher. Bottles my first biab ag on the weekend but I'm not sure it's up to standard. Cheers

Congrats, Tipsy. Would you prefer a Honey Wheat or an Apple Cider?

Honey wheat sounds good

Received these on Christmas eve, looking forward to them this weekend. Thanks Earl.

My God Earl, Your really turning out some tasty beers.
That Hoppy hefe was amazing, what was the citrusy hop? a bit like Cascade but better.
And I'm going to have a stab at the London pride, Styrian Goldings?

Do you have the recipes posted anywhere?

Hi Tipsy, Glad you enjoyed them and thanks for the complement.

I posted the London Pride recipe here http://www.homebrewandbeer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=10821#p111074 a while ago. Challenger, Northdown and Target, no Goldings though.

The hoppy hefe is a ripper hey. Citra and motueka, I've just posted the recipe here http://www.homebrewandbeer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=10987#p112777

Cheers

Got your Honey wheat today SaazGorilla, is she ready to drink?

Cheers

As soon as possible! Enjoy.

Hey Tipsy

Bottle in yesterday's mail (sorry for the delay ), which you should get tomorrow with any luck.... Drop it in the fridge for a bit to let it settle before you knock the end out. Hope it goes down ok!

Had Saazgorillas Honey wheat on the weekend.

Nice and refreshing typical of the style. I didn't get much honey flavour though, but I enjoyed it thoroughly. Thanks

Got Big Daves in the fridge, will give it a nudge on the weekend.

Had Big Daves Golden Ale last night.

Another ripping beer, golden, fluffy head and nice balance of hops.

Really hit the spot on a warm summers night.

Glad you liked it Tipsy.

Which one of you guys is P. Carty?

Got your bottle the other day. Thanks

That's emnpaul, I believe. I received an APA from P. Carty/emnpaul the other day, too.

Thanks Oliver, had it narrowed down to 3 suspects.

Apologies. Yes that's me. Perhaps I should have put it on the box. Either that or Guy Incognito.

No worries, will hopefully be drinking it this weekend

One thing I've learned from this lotto caper is that you guys like your hops

I think emnpauls may be the hoppiest of all (or the title could still go to Earles Heffe, my memories getting blurry). Pours a nice amber colour with a nose full of hops and plenty more in the taste.
Finishes quite bitter (as you'd expect).

This lotto things a hoot. Shit I may be drunk, I've started talking like my old man.

I agree that it is quite bitter, perhaps a little too much. In an ideal world I'd send you a Mk.2 version with a bit better head retention and a bit less bitterness, but I was afraid you'd be waiting until Christmas 2015 to get your winnings.

Seems like you enjoyed it though and I'm glad about that.
