Sovereign is apparently a new hop named for our fair queen's jubilee last year... Lol. Kinda fuggles/noble-y.

geez, bruva! what happened?
I was looking at that earlier. M&S have some great beers in their range at the minute, particularly the ones brewed by meantime brewery, Greenwich. Great stuff.
you're a floccin' champ! I'd said "flocc it" on the 2nd brew.All goes smoothly, then my sink drain clogs. Given that I'd be unable to run my chiller without it, kind of an emergency. Takes me a good while to get that unclogged, but I get it done. In the mean time, while I'm focusing on the drain I neglect to catch a boilover. Fortunately while I didn't stop it, I caught it immediately before it made TOO big of a mess.
Then countless other small spills throughout the course of the brew. Then the pre-chiller I built to supplement my immersion chiller did f@&# all but save me 15 minutes in chill time (45 minutes down to about half an hour). The ice had all melted within the first 15 minutes.
All seemed to work out okay though, since I nailed my volume and nailed my gravity. And nailed my mash temp.
Hopefully batch number two will run smoothly (halfway through a 90 minute mash now). After batch one, I'm lucky I'm even able to do batch two today.

Just opened a gift bottle of Petrus Red. Not sure I can make it through this one though, dang its sweet...like a tangy Dr. Pepper
Good luck on number 2, that sounds like a long day. You'll get more out of the pre-chiller if you wait to hook it up until the main chiller has cooled the wort most of the way - 90 degress is when most people hook there's up, I believe.

This ones not so bad...
Are those fooking thong sandals yours?
Never had the Red. I'm assuming its a Flanders Red? I really dig the Oud Bruin.
Hope it's not a 750, you might get the diabetes!
Too bad that beer isn't aged pale + cherries. That would be great.
First time with this tastes like liquid Carmel yummmmmm!
Ha!! No those belong to my fiancee, I hate sandals
Is it that good!? I was wondering about it
