Which shop?

First choice Salisbury. They were still all hot tho.

I'm drinking a Hop Hog for the second time. The first was about 15 months ago at Y&J'S, on tap and was a completely different beer. The tap version I got was barely drinkable because it was utterly dominated by that oily, grassy flavour dry hopping sometimes imparts.

The bottled version seems to be at the other end of the spectrum - nice, balanced bitterness, but nothing to write home about from a hop aroma/flavour stand point.

Have I been unlucky, or is this beer overrated?

 

[MashPaddler]

Hmm possibly unlucky. All the bottle one's I have had are fresh, balanced, packed full of aroma and flavour.

About to start making my way into a 2L growler of a holgate collaboration brew double red ale from Plonk. At 9.0% and with my general dislike of flat beer, it is going to be a slow start to the morning tomorrow.....

Drinking a Heretic Evil Twin watching Carlton play some average footy.

Nicely balanced beer.

I'd say unlucky. It's an awesome beer but I've had a couple of average ones from dans.

I've had the Hop Hog a few times and loved it ever time. Pretty sticky resin mouthfeel that keeps you going num num num.

I'm drinking a hop hog now and nothing wrong with this beer. Have had it on tap a few times and I would say that it's a better beer but this is still pretty bloody good.

 

[philmud]

I guess I'll just have to persevere!

 

[lukiferj]

I bought this 4 pack from my local dans too.

Kriek Boon.

I used this as a late addition to a belgian dark ale last year, came up brilliantly. The Kriek boon is a great beer.

I have never made a sour.

Did you add the Kriek to your beer?

 

[MashPaddler]

Neither have I! Yes, a late addition at 10 min, which killed off any residual yeast and just added a lovely complexity and present but not dominating sour cherry flavour to the dark ale. Idea drawn from 'Brew like a Monk' book.

 

[nu_brew]

I like this idea!

another book on the birthday list.

big words there, forgot that i posted those. Will have to get to stop at the bottle shop tomorrow on the way to the airport, hope i dont forget.

I'm impressed how the hoppy aroma can last longer than the malt and hop flavours. Not as good as fresh on tap, but still good.

I just had a tooheys extra dry bottle. It tasted maltier than I remember. Someone left a few at my house and I didnt have any cold water to drink h34r:
