Classic Brewing Co Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 8 minutes ago, Brauhaus Fritz said: The pet bottles are very hard to clean, I had a few brews spoiled, even some bottles leaking They are good for anybody starting their brewing journey, looked after they can last for years but after many years of brewing I discovered the fail rate compared to glass bottles was not good. They are good for there portability as well as gifting as they only cost a buck each. I know people who still use them so I am not condemning then just don't need to anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all live in different states & were brought up with different beers so at the end of the day who is right & who is wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pezzza Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Let's change the subject and focus on the positives Like Erdinger.... @Aussiekraut real beer? I had not had Kristall for ages... and although it is nice enough... nowhere near as good as HW... but Aldi only had the Kristall Certainly is Kristall Clear : ) I took the second shot inside as it had got dark before I could get out there... was too busy washing me SS Brew Vat after kegging and pitching ; ) 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha yes it is the wrong thread which I am sure that @Cee will remind me of... But it is the same glass as the above picture and sort of fits in with the stream of consciousness... same glass but I reckon this is filled with something much nicer ; ) The Mountain Sparkling Amber : ) Please don't shoot me... but honestly this beer reminds me of... London Pride... but with higher ABV and more fizz ; ) Edited September 2, 2022 by Itinerant Peasant 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously in mint condition with the box they can bring hundreds but alone not as much, it all depends on condition & label preservation. For some reason they were sold a lot in pairs. https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=8e377c11a3e49bfeJmltdHM9MTY2MjA3NjgwMCZpZ3VpZD0yMjg1ZDExMC1lOTY1LTY2NWMtMDkyYi1jMzAzZTgwNTY3YTQmaW5zaWQ9NTIyNA&ptn=3&hsh=3&fclid=2285d110-e965-665c-092b-c303e80567a4&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ3VtdHJlZS5jb20uYXUvcy1hbnRpcXVlcy1hcnQtY29sbGVjdGFibGVzL2RhcndpbitzdHViYnkvazBjMTgyOTc&ntb=1 https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=6713152e36a1da73JmltdHM9MTY2MjA3NjgwMCZpZ3VpZD0yMjg1ZDExMC1lOTY1LTY2NWMtMDkyYi1jMzAzZTgwNTY3YTQmaW5zaWQ9NTIxNw&ptn=3&hsh=3&fclid=2285d110-e965-665c-092b-c303e80567a4&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly9waWNjbGljay5jb20uYXUvRGFyd2luLVN0dWJieS0xMTQyMDc2OTk3NjAuaHRtbA&ntb=1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tone boy Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Test running a Bridge Road Brewers “New sky IPA Vol.1”. Really good. Great hop flavour. No too bitter. Good malty base. Yummy. Oh, and 8% ABV!! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was lucky enough to score a subscription gift from the in laws, whereby Bridge Road crew send me a case of their mixed beers 4 times a year - one for each season. Each case has a good mix of beers. So far I have received a winter case and a spring case. The IPA pictured is from the spring case. I have been very impressed with their beers so far. Their robust porter was a standout in the winter case. I have been a bit (ok a lot) slack on reporting tasting notes on these fora though… Cheers and good will to all 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red devil 44 Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Elvis Juice Grapefruit IPA by Brewdog. This is nice, can certainly taste the Grapefruit first up on the pallet, then followed by a bitter finish. I’ll give it 8.5/10. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
