This month photo for this regular discussion thread is from my summer trip, I visited few craft brewerys and tasted local beers.
As usual share whatever brewing related - questions, recipes, successes, bad batches...
I will be away for some time (~6 months) but should be reachable. I will travel through Europe (Spain, France, Portugal, Germany,...) when I post about this in relevant community I will link it here. Keep it chill here so I don't have to worry on road.
My last few brews turned out amazing and I am glad that I will be away and they will have time to age. Otherwise I would have drink them in few months, someone told me that ciders are best after 1-2 years of aging so finally it may get the chance to survive that long.
Edit: If you want to ask me something about my plans I posted about it on !bicycle_touring@lemmy.world

My last brew was a pale ale-weißbeer - hybrid and it turned out fantastic. I used Magnum and Hallertau Mittelfrüh hops and weißbeer yeast, the resulting flavour has a tinge of aniseed/licorice root in it. The IBU is somewhere near 30.
I made a 23 litre batch for Christmas and New Year's celebrations, I should have made 2 batches. Guests shared my opinion of the quality and yearned for more ;)
