Sweet vanilla, alcohol heat, slight coffee, finishes dryish, it’s a really good beer. I thought it might be around for a while due to the ABV, well tonight I’ve already had three pints. Sensational beer I have so many beers I want to make this being one of them your convincing me to move it up the list 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
der kleine Drache Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Brewferm Bastard. The rest from bottling Gallia and Petit Cru. I've begun to put the bottom rest from my 2 fermenters in big bottles in the fridge to let the sediment settle for later bottling. This one is sweet and malty. Goes down easy. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sensational beer Is this something that would age well and be even better in a years time. My mate wants me to brew him a porter so I was thinking about a small batch and age in a glass demijohn??

The vanilla would not age well, just like hop aroma, she disappears over a short amount of time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think that beer was a turning point for me and how good porters could be. There’s a lot of bad examples out there. That beer was so layered in flavour it made you think about it. Bloody great beer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloody great beer. Yup. Ben sent me down one of the Hazelnut Porters too around early November last year. Delicious! He really had done it well. The Hazelnut was blended lovely into the style & gave a lovely flavour & presented well on the pour etc. It was pretty much impossible NOT to enjoy. He's a very talented boy this one across quite a few culinary areas & with home brewing certain beer styles. Cheers, Lusty. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An unfortunate name for a town, must be the butt of many a joke! As an aside - although I 'identify' as Kiwi I'm actually English... born in a nearby town to Ramsbottom. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
