Beer, revisited


Had some of this last night; it's been too long, my friend

Threw a brew on at the weekend, after several months since my last one. Timothy Taylor Landlord recipe, although I didn't have the correct yeast to hand so had to use a generic ale one, so will prob taste quite different.
Brewed a load of IPA last year so fancy trying some different now - might get a stout on the go and see how that turns out.
 

A question to the older crowd on GOT?

have you been drinking excessively since your 20's? have you seen it take a toll on your health? did you slow down in your 30's?

I'm 23 and I drink about every weekend with maybe 1-3 beers on the weekday. I've been doing this for about 2 years now. I'm just curious to see how long I will continue this pattern.
I was at my drinking peak around 22 or 23 and reduced massively in my late 20s.

Between the ages of about 20 and 38 I was hammering it solid at least 2 or 3 times a week, played a lot of footy so that probably helped balance it out quite a lot. What I found happened with me was that as I got older my hangovers become much worse and took longer to get over . Ie in my 20's early 30's I could 2 nights on the bounce. Past 35 I had to have a clear day between drinking. Kids to me are the great leveller, as a hangover with young children is like a Medieval torture.

I probably peaked 25-27 with some pretty excessive drinking and then slowed way down once I had a professional reputation to nurture.
