Hill Farmstead Brewery - Florence
Lemon, spicy, tart, highly carbonated. Excellent “farmhouse” style beer.

Barrio Brewing Tuson Blonde Ale. Quickly become a fan of the brewery, the sampler 12 pack was excellent across the board, whent back to the store and got a 12 pack of the Blonde Ale...something light for after work out here.

Opened another Woodforde's mini-keg. Norada Pale Ale. I think I will put some of my current cider batch in this keg as it is going to be empty by then.

Excellent balance of citrus and hops, both elements very prominent without being over the top. Lasting moreish aftertaste too. Head thins out fairly quickly but returns consistently with just a few swirls of the glass. Paired very well with both Tandoori Chicken starter and Madras for main course.
 
Here's that ginger beer I did with 3kg of honey and I think it was 1kg cane sugar.
This is pretty good!

7% abv she came in at so for me a heavy hitter. Fermented with lellamands Windsor ale yeast attenuated to 1.000 but you can taste the honey!

It's got a honey sweetness thing to it that and or it's the alcohol playing on my taster...

On the nose you can smell that kafir lime and the ginger.
It also reminds me if a mead with all the honey in it, it makes sense.

It's got some great ginger flavour and bite to it but for me personally at this ABV I'm thinking oh man it'd be great if it had that green ginger wine kick to it which it doesn't.

That would require more ginger if you want to brew it.
I threw 200g ish in the boil and 100g juiced along with 1 kafir lime and the zest in secondary fermentation (keg).

I think it could do with one more lime.

But I'll be brewing more of this bad boy for sure :)
