Evening all,

After removing the largest lemon cucumber that row of dutch buckets is a lot airier and it's quite a bit easier for me to move around there.

Finally my peppers have gotten into gear and there's loads of fruit formed. If only they could ripen already, heh.

This is a Hungarian hot wax pepper. Lovely sized fruit, turning yellowish now.

I've also got a Sweet Banana pepper plant.

The rutgers are the best producing medium sized tomato variety that I have. A few aphids around there but they don't seem to be doing anything anymore. I sprayed them with some soapy water, this will dry them out.

The first Ox hearts are ripening, they're not quite as big as I hoped they would get, but still good size, funky shapes as well.

And I can't wait for these bad boys to be ready. Green zebra tomatoes; I've heard great things about them, still have to try one for myself.

To help me out with this back breaking farming work. my lovely wife massive-pop@massive-pop got me some farmhouse beer, which is always greatly appreciated.

This is another beer in which champagne yeasts played a role giving it that characteristic dryness and sparkle.

If only I knew that there are farms that reward their workers with such a beer... I would have applied for a job there, heh.

It's got a hazy light orange look, lovely head and it keeps releasing bubbles until the end.

It smells yeasty, in a good way and citrusy.
When tasting it, the lemon grass hits you straight away with some lemon zest poking its head as well. The malts show their bitterness after and a light sweet after taste follows before finishing quite dry.

All in all, it's a great session beer and at 5% it won't kill me if I have more than a couple.

I guess I could say I'm a farmer so I can drink this beer as an occupational requirement. Does a 4x4 m greenhouse count as a farm?

Thanks for checking this out!

Cheers
