Dusseldorf Alt that I had last night. Plenty of bitterness, but also some supporting maltiness which is perfect for a cool evening.

an ESB. One of those beers that you think I'll just have one and at the end of the first one, you think I better have another and another.

Malty but not sweet, good bitterness balance and some nice English earthy type hop characters.

I love drinking out of my Ritzenhoff glass.

And - My Old. Was a tweaked version of a theakstons OP recipe done with a bit of treacle and recultured Coopers yeast. It was nice before but now after almost 3 years in the bottle it is simply amazing. Too bad it was the last one. Time to get this one back on the brew list. :icon_cheers:

It looks like you have a lattice swizzle stick in your beer King... :p
 
The Drunk Arab's Doppelbock... Like chewin' into a big malty, alcoholic biscuit. :icon_drool2: Potent enough for me to fall asleep in front of the TV. Nice one Arab! B)

My Latest Bitter. Think I can get used to the Styrian/Fuggles combo. Also Ringwood makes the best rapid grain to brain beers going around. :D

Time to dig out the Roger Whittaker CDs. :party:

Stubbie I did a step mash. Protein rest of 55 degrees for 20 mins and infused up to 67 degrees for 60 mins.

To be honest I'm not sure what the FG is because I rarely check. (have used Ringwood so many times I don't bother). Airlock stops, beer starts to clear yada, yada.

The glass was very easy to find... when you're in Aying! :p I picked it up from a pub near the brewery. Sounds like you'll have to go back there.

It is a nice hop combo Warren, haven't used Ringwood, can you describe the flavour/aroma profile for me against S-04 or Wy 1098

Munich Dunkel.

Fantastic lager to drink at the bar by the fire on a cold winters night!

cheers

Hey Screwy. Quite different to both. Let's just say you'll get similar attenuation to S-04 but a far more complex flavour profile. I always find it's quite estery on the nose and the flavour is always full of residual sweetness and a bit of unripe stone fruit to my tastes. With Ringwood I always enjoy the beer more with less late hopping in terms of aroma.

From my personal standpoint I find it has no equal in lower gravity beers. For stronger ales I'd prefer Whitbread (1098).
