And you as well - feck feck feck

HA! I didn't even know and thought you blokes were stalking me, how was the timing?
Also just saw you can 'Like' status comments. Thanks goodness for validation culture.

What about commenting?

Had to buy some tinnies for the pool, eventually settled on some Melbournes instead. I'm a big fan of variety.

LOL

It's VB weather when typhoons, tornados and supervolcano eruptions have destroyed all beer stocks except a stash of VB that Carltion happened to be storing in a cave. And the temp is above 50 everywhere.

Haven't used this hop in 5 years, got some recently. A post swap lager could be on the cards.

Yum

2 weeks in the fridge and this one sucks. Fingers crossed some age fixes things.

I'd hate to see some of you guys on a shovel for a day.

I'm a menace on the shovel. But I don't use a trowel to dig a hole, I use a shovel.

Touche.

Na, cant see a thing.

(I have actually wondered where they come from (but not to the extent of actually looking))

What status update? Can we update our stati? How frequently? Geez! Mine would have been changing by the femtosecond recently :((

Yours mysteriously disappeared...

Indeed. While the beauty of HB is that each can do what one wishes half the point is discovery - eg discovery of toasted malts, different malt suppliers and different mash temps.

Spot on techno, tastes stellar in my Yorkshire Bitter but the stouts, US ales and similar are overdone. Biscuit, brown, roasted barley, carafa, Vienna, chocolate, midnight wheat... so much good stuff that ain't 'crystal'

There's lots of good non-crystal stuff. I use it sparingly in my Americans, and find I like it well, as the beer still ends up with a minor malt backbone. Still haven't established the right amount in my British beers, but that journey of discovery is another matter.

That's a unique way to make a Lambic.

Until you marry one of them

Pokeballs?

I am also declaring the arrival of the KFC pulled pork burger to be the sign that we have reached peak pulled pork.

Black pale ales are my favourite.

Pale dark ales are also right up there. Organic, GMO-free biodynamic of course.

Quite a few people have a stake in this now

Did you manage to create pattern on this shirt ... pin stripe perhaps
tip to the wise don't use mohair ..very prickly on the skin

"Relax... It's just a little pin prick, there'll be no more ARRGGH, but you may feel a little sick"

Typo, it should be "Engrish"

lower case in chat is ok ... and forums imho

I enjoy playing with fire. Hence the occasional death threats.

I enjoy fighting fire with fire.

I enjoyed firing my cook...

Keep children away.

There, FTFY.

Is your brewing equipment ok?

Near death experience with my Thermapen. Bottom row on the LCD is stuffed, but otherwise reads. So I can still make sub-par beer in style.

You don't want my never-to-be-used-again leftovers then?

I have it in a keg hopped APA on tap at the mo representing 25% of the 3g/l hop bill and the beer tastes great!

Samr. I smashed with nelson and it sucked. Keg hopped is delicious

Gen-Y, Twit-face-space-book stuff, huh??

hit the like button like a boss and subscribe to my channel!!!!
If I kept talking like this would I get mistaken for a spammer?

Lend me some sugar

I am your neighbour.

Deep lyrics man

Must have a good Stock..

You don't have a library so you can brew what you want when you want?

Us05 or Coopers is the choice then, or maybe OS04 for something a little fancy ;)

going to Carolina in your mind?
Not that anyone in their right mind would want to go there, redneck dump.

Friday?

lamented loss.. one word.. Spares

I feel like using another is cheating on the old one

9 years! I reckon my first lasted 9 days and second 9 weeks. damn glass being so fragile

So.. No?

I've been mash free going on 6 weeks. Hiatus appears to have no immediate end. Need help. Send beer.

I'm now reduced to drinking Rivet Lager. Not too bad at a dollar a tin.
