Notes: Based on Thwaites Bitter which uses 45% Maris Otter, 45% Pipkin pale malt and 10% sugar.
10 days in the bottle. Not too good. Thin and under carbonated with a dry finish. Yellow colour (like cider or urine) Sweet malt on the nose. Maybe a slight hint of infection, or it may be because it is very fresh. Slightly bitter. Totally underwhelming beer. |

Notes: Discovered this quite by accident. Originally based on the Parnell Pale Ale recipe, I accidentally ordered a darker Crystal malt. Although the recommended grist ratio for this crystal malt is around 5% of the grain bill, this particular recipe worked an absolute treat. It's not really an Irish Red, but this is the closest style.
The mash schedule was batch sparge. 1st batch hold at 66 degrees. I've found this a good balance between the alpha and the beta. It's the upper limit of the beta and the lower end of the alpha. I've stretched out the times to allow both to work most effectively. Allow a little cooling during the final lauter phase to help create the most fermentable wort possible.
The hops were left over from previous brews, so I've adjusted accordingly.
I bottled after a few weeks in primary and allowed to condition in the bottle for a few more weeks. Absolutely divine! |
