I just ordered the ingredients for two beers I’m going to brew for the Swedish national homebrew championship in Umeå in May.
They’re going to have the same base ingredients, but different yeasts and amounts. I’ve never used either yeast, and not the hops either so it’s a bit of a gamble. But it will be fun at least.

I’ve prepped everything and I’m ready for the homebrew championship Belgoträffen in Uppsala tomorrow. I’m bringing my Belgianwit beer called Witan.
The recipe for the beer is available here:

Oh no! I didn’t bring enough beer, I’ve already run out. I should have brought the large keg. At least the judges got to taste it.

Today I am at the People’s House in Rågsved near Stockholm and serving my dark mild beer that I brewed about a month ago.
I have a website with the recipes to all the beers I’ve brewed, including this one.

I just tried the beer I brewed a few weeks ago. I’ve never made a beer with this low ABV before, only 2.8%. It tastes quite nice, and is surprisingly full bodied. I’m bringing it with me to the homebrew meetup on Saturday.

Yesterday I brewed a beer. I got inspired by the London cask ale trip and decided to try and make a dark mild. It has an OG of 1.037, which is pretty weird to me as I’m more used to imperial stouts that has that as the FG. I’ve never brewed a beer with this low alcohol level, I’m aiming for 3.2% ABV. I’m looking at the telemetry from the pill in the fermenter and it has already fermented down to 1.029 SG.
It was the first time I brewed after adding camlocks to the counter flow chiller. It turned out to be missing a gasket making it leak a lot. After searching through all my gear without finding a gasket or replacement couplings I realized I could steal the gasket from the CIP. But I need to buy extras before the next brew.

We’ve setup our table at the Swedish national homebrew championship. Our beers have numbers 265 and 266, and the table is in the middle row, near Humlegården.
This year we’re serving a New England IPA called ”Wreedes drvuor” that’s double dry hopped with lots of cryo hops. And an English best bitter at 4.5% ABV called Tweed.

On Saturday I’m going to Linköping to serve two beers at the Swedish homebrew championship.
I’ve made a New England IPA together with my brother, and an English best bitter.

I’m at the homebrew competition Belgoträffen in Uppsala serving my Belgian blond beer In de Zeeland. It’s brewed with the New Zealand hop Kohatu.
The recipe is available here:

Here’s the recipe of my homebrewed beer In de Zeeland that I’m bringing to the homebrew competition Belgoträffen next weekend. It’s a Belgian blonde hopped with the New Zealand hop Kohatu.

I served my latest NEIPA at the office today. It’s double dry-hopped with Nelson Sauvin, Simcoe, and Cashmere cryo hops. I fermented it with White Labs Tropicale yeast. It’s the first time that I used no hops in the boil and no hopstand.
It’s got lots of tropical notes, and quite bitter. Very drinkble.
-
I’m brewing a hazy IPA today. This time I’m going to try without a hop stand, and instead use all the hops in the fermenter. I’m also trying out the Tropicale yeast from White Labs. Hopefully this is going to be very tropical. I’m only using cryo hops as well. The hops I’m using is Nelson Sauvin, Simcoe, and Cashmere. I’ll be serving the beer to the team where I’m consulting at the moment.
-
I just ordered 500 grams of cryo hops and Tropicale yeast from white labs. I’m going to brew a NEIPA for the people at the company I’m consulting at. I’ll be using Nelson Sauvin, Simcoe, and some Cashmere. I’m going to use it all as dry hopping. Hopefully it will be very juicy.
-
That’s it for today’s homebrew meetup in Linköping. I still have some beer left to take home, which is a shame. I had a fan who made his best to finish my keg at the end, but it wasn’t enough. It’s hard to stand out with a low abv stout among all imperial stouts.
-
I’m at the homebrew meetup Novembermörker in Linköping and serving my dry stout fermented with Voss kveik yeast.

@Skruvdobb Idag har jag på mig en tisha med en bild jag använde som etikett till ölen jag serverade på SM i hembryggning i år.

I’m drinking my hazy IPA Catpunk, that has hops inspired by Brewdog’s Punk IPA. it has five different hops, Simcoe, Nelson Sauvin, Cascade, Amarillo, and Nugget. The last one I used as a replacement for Chinook and Ahtahnum that was unavailable when I brewed it this time. It came sixth in it’s category at the homebrew meetup last weekend.
-
I’m back home after the homebrew championship. People seemed to like both beers, especially the hazy IPA which ran out before the voting ended.
-
My table is setup, the beer is flowing. Now I have 75 minutes to try out other beers before the visitors arrive.
I have an Irish red ale and a New England IPA that’s dry-hopped twice and has hops in the keg.
I’m in the back right corner with the numbers 195 and 196.

It’s time to take my bucket and head over to the Swedish national homebrew championship. I forgot to bring something for the drain of my glass washer.
-
I’ve finished setting up my table at the Swedish national homebrew championship. So tomorrow I can just show up and start serving my beer.
-
I think I’m ready for the Swedish homebrew championship on Saturday. I’ve kegged the beers I’m bringing with me, and cleaned everything. Now I’m just waiting for the beer to carbonate.
-
Now I need to keg the second beer I’m going to bring with me to the Swedish national homebrew championship on Saturday. And clean the beer cooler and a picnic tap.
-
I’ve kegged my Irish red ale. It’s yet another low alcohol beer from the British isles. This used to be my favorite beer a long time ago, but I’ve hardly had it for a long time. I hope it still holds up.
-
I just bottled the last of two beers, an imperial stout with saffron, and an Irish pale ale. I also bottled some of my best bitter and sour ale. I think I might be bringing some of those with me to share at the homebrew championship. But now I ran out of co2, so I’ll have to wait until tomorrow to bottle some more.
-
First taste of my new hazy IPA Pop Cat. It looks great, with a light haze. But the aroma and flavor is a bit underwhelming. I can’t recommend using only the Cryo Pop blend from Yakima Chief. I could see it as an addition to a beer with Mosaic or Simcoe though. I also accidentally used the Lalbrew Verdant yeast instead of London Fog. Still, it’s a really good beer!
-
Today’s brew day went a lot better than last week. 25 liters of hazy IPA is in the fermenter, the brew vessel is cleaned, and I’ve already made dinner.
-
Going by train and bus to the “local” homebrew shop took ages. But now I’ve handed in four beers to the beer judge competition for the Swedish national homebrew competition. Luckily I met a friend there who gave me a ride back home.
-
The brew day today was rough. Lots of things went wrong. I only just finished cleaning the brew system. But there is finally 25 liters of Irish red ale in the fermenter.

Drinking a homebrewed Boddington clone.
