Monthly meet-up: Alfie Byrne's 23rd July, 7pm 11 years 9 months ago #49

Loadsa stateside lads coming along.
I'm bringing some of the "peanut butter" red ale from the capital brew day too, although I think it'll be more like a "what happened to this" addition [emoji20]

That 3-year-old barley wine from Nigel was pretty special. Really enjoyed Giacomo's pink peppercorn porter and Hingo's big heavy IPA as well.

That barleywine deserves a gold medal! Great night for the big beers - felt it this morning tho..

Alfies were great hosts, liked how they had the place setup for us, little things like that go a long way for me!

Glad you all liked it. It is kind of nice. Just checked and i can now sadly inform you all it was in fact only two and a half years old not the 3 I said. <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

Only 7 bottles left as well so I cant see it making another outing any time soon. Maybe in another year or 2.

Grad you liked the pepper porter... I'm planning to buy a decent mash tun soon, so I might try to reproduce it in slightly more significant quantities <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->
