Next at the plate is a fantastic California hop-bomb. AleSmith IPA is a tremendous beer. Great hoppy taste & aroma without any harshness to the well balanced bitterness.

A quality English Ale next. Malty, fruity, complex. The dog liked it too when some spilt on the floor as I opened the bottle. Good dog

Just had a bottle of Sierra Nevada Kellerweis. Very tasty. With being fresh I think it actually tasted more like a proper German Hefe than the real ones that spent weeks on a ship getting here.

After several attempts at the brewing of the year being cancelled due to weather or hangover I’m finally getting to do the first brew of the year today. As seems to have become tradition I’m starting with a batch of my favourite – Amarillo IPA.

My other opening day tradition is to make at least one cock-up. I can’t wait to see what it’ll be this year.

Oh man, what a busy time the last couple of weeks has been, both in my blog life & real life. I’ll try to catch up with everything as well as I can, as soon as I can, keeping in chronological order.

Today is Yorkshire Day, a celebration of the greatest county on Earth and home to many of the world’s finest beers. Cheers.
