Impending Brewday

Right. It’s about time I bloody brewed something.

Pressure of work leading up to the family holiday, then dealing with all the crap when I got back, has meant I’ve not had time to scratch my backside, let alone think about getting a brew on.

But I finally can pause to draw breath next week, so I’ve pencilled in a brewday for Thursday.

I can’t disclose the recipe for this one as it’s based on a commercial beer brewed by a friend of mine. All I can say is that it’s a golden ale, using Green Bullet hops and is marketed as a ‘perfect thirst quencher’.

Let’s just hope there’s some summer left in which to enjoy it. To put our summer in perspective to any American readers, it’s currently 52F as I write. And it’s raining. 

I’m currently out of pale malt, so I’ll be off to ThreeCastles Brewery next week to pick up a sack. Can’t wait to get the brewing boots back on...
