How long have you been using those plastic beer bottles and what do you make of them?
If you are boiling up your extract kit, you can throw any adjuncts into the brew kettle.

@BeerGogglesReviews Why not just use your pressure barrel as I doubt plastic bottles are good for long term starage? I know there are plastic bottles in the home-brew trade but they are typically as expensive as buying new glass, adn you should have bottles from commercial brews. What have yo...

whisky review 245 - Black & White
a decent, simple blended Scotch with a creamy-cirtus-grain thing going on.
I wouldn't trust the pourer as a security device, bar managers and stewards soon will get around anything if they are that way inclined. I've come across simple pour assist pourers and they have been good, enabling a constant pour rate, instead of a glup, glug, slop. If you have a ball in there...

whisky review 243 - Johnnie Walker Blue Label
... this classic Scotch gets an experienced drinker's appraisal of it's intrinsic quality.
You forgot about the gas meter seal and the fancy casket, plus there is the whole theatre of presentation, which is why it is not really a consumer's bottle of scotch. It's meant to be used as a complimentary arm-bender. It's how JW became the international big-boy. Geddit?

@ralfystuff Thank's.
Well if the the whisky hazed, I couldn't have seen it for sure because of the ice on the outside of the bottle. I did feel there was a hint and perhaps the minimum applied chill-filtration has been used. As I remember, protein haze only exibits itself below 5 deg C, so I...

I wonder whether I'm seeing a significant shift in quality or more my taste. Although seriously liking W&M 13 probably 4 months ago, the bottle bought in the last month is sad. I believe the taste has changed and it is now below my threshold for spirit caramel. In a lesser time period, I am en...

@BeerGogglesReviews That saved me asking you what you had against them. Yes many whisky producers use industrialised caramel, it is more significant in dmaging whisky than it is in damaging beer. I don't find Wells & Young's beers offensive, they're just being honest when they are not required ...

I'm convinced Martons do it as routine, intentionally to disguise bad beer. Within 10 miles of the brewery there was not a hint of sulphide in their cask beers.
