    4/8/19 - Batch #4 (Chai Spiced) - Eff.
  • Same grist, yeast (M44) and water chem., new hop bill aiming to be a bit more neutral to allow Chai to show. No idea as to what hops to pair with Chai so left it the same as previous.

    Citra 20 g @ 0 min

    22/819 - Added 1 cup of chai spice (1 tsp of homemade spice dissolved in 200 ml of hot water)
    26/8/19 - Got the spice mix pretty right, tastes and smells just a bit of chai.
    1/12/19 - Bottled the last few out of old keg, the flavour became a bit more spicy, would make again but at the start of winter. It's a warming beer that takes a while to finish
