    You'll know my 'local' in that it's a Chef and Brewer. Not really a pub as such.

    Was staggered at that price though. It's two quid a pint cheaper in Mumbles, and that's pretty touristy.

    One was a Madri, which is churned out pish and should be £4 a pint, tops.

    You're gonna have to tell me how this goes as I might yet do it.

    Just seems a bit too mix in the bag, but if it's nice then why not?

    What's the strength of these beers?

    Not ordered any beer from a certain company for a while, got an email giving me 40% off my next order, 48 cans for £42 free delivery.
    Not sure if it will work for everyone but if anyone wants the code send me a pm

    Sterilised it which was easy enough. Then just mixed the pouch with bottled water and poured it in, added the yeast and gave it a shake. On the dock now for 9 days.

    The app says 5 days brewing then 4 in the fridge but the father in law says 10 days brewing and then 5 in the fridge.

    I suppose it's just at that stage, It bubbled away for a while and is now just sitting in a corner of the living room. Looks neat and tidy so no complaints. I do something called cold crashing on Tuesday where it goes to the fridge to brew for a day then it's conditioning for 4 days. Ready for Friday.

    It's hard work just letting it sit there and hoping it's doing what it's supposed to. No ****ing clue until you pour one.
