Re: Wards Best Bitter

That’s just how I remember it…. =D>
Wife’s uncle described it has fighting beer….
Once inside it fights to get out yer rear end. :lol:
Think it was around 4.5% if correct so it had a bit of oomph to it…

Re: The most up-to-date brewery in Britain (1963)

Great post, thx.. Love to see old brewery footage. Was looking at this one from Adnams which was quite interesting, especially at the end when the reporter was asking the old guys how many beers a day do they sink.. Most said 3-4.. Nice one!!! https://player.bfi.org.uk/free/film/watch-how-beer-is-br...

Doom Bar 5L keg yeast?

Helped a guy out to polish off a 5L keg of Doom Bar yesterday and I noticed the last pint after tilting upside down had some clumps of yeast in it..
Does anyone know if this is primary strain or a basic kegging yeast??

Have a taste and if acceptable keg & carbonate but drink it quicker than you normally would. Last resort is down the drain... Only time I would give it to the grate gods if it's acidic. Do you ferment under airlock? I always use 5 gallon wine fermenters under airlock and never remove until the yeast...
