2016 VIC Xmas in July Swap/Brew- Recipe

[technobabble66]

Fwiw, I diluted mine down to 25L at OG=1.058 (this included 250g of aromatic/toffee malt into the cube). It was meant to hit 1.016 using 1469 with an attenuation of 69%. However, ended up at FG=1.012.

Just polished off another. Another double thumbs up. Great drop! [emoji482]

Been in the keg for about a month now, that earthiness is mellowing and it's gone from being a beer that I was trying to like to a beer that I really do like. [emoji481][emoji481]

Nice, simple recipe, well-executed.

I'll be over in 5 minutes. Have a glass ready....

 

[Curly79]

Ok. Done. Very happy with it.

Can only agree with you there mate. Very happy with this one.

Still not sure what we are calling it? English IPA? English/American IPA?

I was kidding. Maybe a quiet-one sometime this weekend?

It was deliberately designed so folks could do whatever they wanted with it & call it whatever they want. Blank canvas, depending on what hops you add to it & when, what yeast, fermentation profile...etc...etc...

Call it what you want to call it...

Let's just call it "The Ale of Everywhere" after my favourite piece of music.

Obscure - probably only Mardoo will get the reference....

Slack me here - will be pitching 2x mangrove jacks west coast ale packs into this (I went the American IPA route with my cube). Looking forward to it being my first ferment of 2017.
