I pitched the yeast for the new brew (to be named later) and it is bubbling away nicely with an original gravity of 1.030. It should be 1.040 but no matter it will probably come out at about 3.5% ABV which plenty strong enough. I will leave this brew until next Friday and then check the OG again.
The dried malt finally turned up from the Thrifty Shopper. Definitely the fault of the Royal Mail so I will continue with the Thrifty Shopper.
On a different note and for those of you who are interested below is a map of the walk we completed from County Gate to Porlock with some interesting statistics, with thanks to Richard.
An account of successes and failures in attempts to reproduce some of the finest ales found in the UK and tastings of some of the many real ales and beers available commercially.
YOU MAY NOT LIKE ALL OF THE ALES ON OFFER BUT YOU CAN'T DENY THAT REAL ALE IS TASTY.
