Interestingly the LME contains barley
How much did that little lot cost ?

According to a quick Google search, anything between £24 to £30...

Did they have the olives stall there? No prices and I am glad I wasn't next in the queue when somebody at the front was charged an astronomical amount, I quickly retreated.

I was there on Sunday morning for the Farmers Market having stayed overnight at Holbeach Hurn.

Thanks. Nipped over there today. Nice indoor Market. There was even a chap there selling beer!

Birdhouse Brewery?
When we went in February my wife bought some cider from the stall next to his.

I toured the Black Sheep brewery many years ago and I thought they used Yorkshire Squares.
I was impressed by the timber work especially in the roof.

Smashing. A mate and I often used to meet up there BC.

I good habit to restart methinks.

I should've added that the closing times can be a bit later depending on how many punters are in. I don't think Luke likes my grandsons!

All the hazy beers I have tasted have been citrus flavoured. If I want to taste grapefruit, I would eat a grapefruit. My wife enjoys citrus tasting beers... Is the priors oven still open? Yes, my daughter's partner works there! Luke is on holiday today though. Reduced hours since COVID: Thursday 4p...

No pop noticed! HAve normal beer on the go too - Today I made 45L of "Shed" lager - stella clone, bottled 24L of bitter, and have just started a 25L batch of same bitter fermenting. Currently have 30L of a light lager, 25 of a NZ pilsner underway too. Trying to get lager made before the weather war...

Did i not menetion it

Kidding. Defo no a dibble but you are geographically correct - gotta collect some paperwork in person (due to Royal Mail)

I didn't think a Dibble would be brewing beer.

Proper Lincolnshire then. I am off up to the big office at Nettleham next week.

Does that mean that you are a Dibble?

Mashbag, I blew in over nearly 35 years ago... My wife is a Yellowbelly and she is VERY careful with money.

Am I correct in thinking you are based in Holbeach? I was there on Sunday morning for the Farmers Market having stayed overnight at Holbeach Hurn.

Yeah.. Spalding does that to you.
Repurposed sleeping bag.

Only if you are indigenous to the area, as a blow in I don't consider myself as tight as locals.

Surely it is the taste/flavour of the beer that is important, not what it looks like. Having said that, I don't particularly like hazy beers.

I do like your mash jacket. I have made similar, but it isn't a patch on that.

Yours was probably cheaper...
