What are you drinking right now?

Looks tasty! I may need to pour a schwarzbier for myself in a bit
Speaking of schwarzbier this one came up in the advent calendar box (12 pack) of one of my
Favorite local breweries. Very tasty!

Boo Newcastle haha! I’m from the city just south with a huge rivalry with Newcastle (Sunderland). I have family in both areas so it’s fun with the banter back and forth. Newcastle brown is a bottle beer and not something you would/will get on tap as it’s an export beer only (like fosters in Australia). It was one of the few early English beers you could get in the 90’s (80’s?) in the US. Was my only way to have a pint from the northeast England then, I haven’t had one in quite awhile. Sorry just realized I have typed a paragraph but I think we both would enjoy a pint together!

Paragraphs are good! This would explain why I didn’t see this beer on draft anywhere when I was in Northern England/southern Scotland 10 years ago. I expected to see it and didn’t. Oddly it was one of the first British beers I had on draft, just here in the US. Used to be able to get Bass and Newcastle on draft and bottles close by but haven’t seen in years either way. We would DEFINITELY enjoy a pint together

Well beer on the left czech pilsner with Weyerman pilsner malt beer on the right is Weyerman Floor Malted pilsner. The right beer not as clear but hasn't lagered as long. Color is the same, lacing is the same and I can't taste a difference.

I used to visit trillium down by the docks in Boston for growler fill ups before they bottled. Are they still there. They made good beers. Do you have recipe posted
I have never been there. I got the recipe from the BYO Clone book. I had to tweak the recipe due some ingredients not on hand.

I used to subscribe to BYO magazine and really enjoyed it. They only do digital now and was thinking to subscribe but have trouble reading stuff on line. I saved all the back issues and go back to for inspiration. They hay a piece on old German styles and recipes. I brewed a dinkel (spelt) beer that was good. Do you subscribe? I'm wondering if its worth it

I don't subscribe. I bought the book of 300 recipes a few years ago.
