You'd have to come to England ;-)

Finished blogging about this earlier, Shane is a Homebrew mate that turned pro, cobbled together all his own kit from Second-hand vessels etc http://pdtnc.wordpress.com/2013/10/12/the-cheshire-brewhouse-bipa-brewday/ Here's his website link too http://www.cheshirebrewhouse.co.uk Cheers for...

Just did a write-up of my visit to this brewery in the heart of Yorkshire... http://pdtnc.wordpress.com/2013/10/04/ossett-brewery-west-yorkshire/ I hope its of interest to some of you. Cheers

Blogged results and my photos of the judging :) http://pdtnc.wordpress.com/2012/09/17/uk-n...mpetition-2012/ Cheers

Another excellent brewery blogged for those Ex-pat Yorkshire men on the forum. Magic Rock is a progressive and forward-thinking brewery, brewing beers with healthy hopping! ;) http://pdtnc.wordpress.com/2011/11/11/magic-rock-brewing-co/ Magic Rock Brewing Co. by pdtnc, on Flickr

Oh its definitely a Micro-Thing, thats why UK breweries have got to get their skates on when the Hop-Boats come in from abroad... make sure they get their orders in quick of all the pungent hoppy goodness. Both American & New Zealand varieties sold out really fast at Charles Farams here in the...

Tara at Mallinsons started homebrewing with Extract and hop experiments making 1 Gallon at a time... Check out my blog post of Todays visit :) http://pdtnc.wordpress.com/2011/10/21/mall...y-huddersfield/

I'd appreciate some feedback if anyone has any thoughts on my recipe ideas http://pdtnc.wordpress.com/2011/07/16/a-tale-of-3-weizen/ Many thanks :)

The Brewdog one was a bit odd, only ever a taste experience and not something you'd buy again. I'm sure you can get better flavour out of Bramling Cross hops.

Blogged this after our recent visit. http://pdtnc.wordpress.com/2011/06/25/the-...n-cook-brewery/ :)

Elland Brewery, West Yorkshire, England - I had an entertaining chat with Head Brewer yesterday so blogged it. http://pdtnc.wordpress.com/2011/04/10/ella...rdon-mckiernan/

London Porterish - This is a bit of a user-upper / Christmas gift / Christmas beer / a beer I only recently tasted at a beer fest and thought was amazing (Fullers London Porter). So this recipe is based around the one in the Graham Wheeler book, though a touch of Wheat malt added for head and...

It does look like 5.2 ;) Maybe 5.3 at a push :) The IBU's should be in the 37-44 range, The Northdown Hops were 7.6%AA in a 12 Litre Brew length, and being 'First Wort Hops' they might even give a little more due to the extra time they are in the wort before coming to the boil. This is...

Stout of my Head Fermentables: Golden Promise 1800g Flaked Barley 500g Roasted Hemp Seed 250g Wheat Malt 100g Crystal Malt, Dark 100g Roasted Barley 90g Chocolate Malt 80g (I also added a tiny bit of Maize which might just act like Corn Flour and Set my Mash!) Hops: Northdown 60 mins 25g...
