im just mashing in some simpsons aromatic/areomatic/aeromatic/acrobatic/acrostic/autistic/arithmetic for the first time now and it's very...aromatic!!!!! certainly raisiny.... hope not too raisiny.

Sounds sweet mate. I used some of the naked oats in a strong ale, and even though there was a whack of cara aroma in the bill, you could smell the yumminess of them. Im using them next batch in a UK blonde, think i'll get more of them.

I have some of that aeromatic, or whatever it is, i got both simpsons, and dingemanns, just to be sure.

Let us know how it turns out mate.

Ok. I think im onto something here. Brewed this Amber lager. It really reminded me of Wells Bombadier, well the malt flavour. I know its a lager and all but I think this Malt bill with english hops and yeast would really be a cracker. Someone give it a nudge. And see what you think. Mash 66. IBU 28.

Here it is -

59% JW Ale
23.6% Pale Wheat
11.7% Munich 1
2.8% Caraaroma
2.8% Caramunich 1
