G'day guys and girls,
I'm about to attempt my first AG brew to crank out 13 or so longnecks for my best mate's 21st.
After having Stone and Wood Draught and not only loving it but observing quite a few similarities between it and LC's Special Bitter I want to have a crack.
LC's Special Bitter used Pale Ale, Crystal and Belgian Aromatic grains with EKG used exclusively.
I figure to get something close to Stone and Wood's Draught I'd need to use a similar grain bill with EKG for bittering, then include some Galaxy additions mid-boil to get that amazing passionfruit flavour without the aroma being too sledgehammerish.
I'll be doing a 12L batch as I can do a BIAB in my Big W pot.
2.5kg Pale Ale malt
100g Crystal
100g Dingemans Aromatic
20g EKG @ 60mins
10g Galaxy @ 30mins
5g Galaxy @ 5mins
Probably use a London Ale yeast.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, even if I'm WAY off track.
Cheers! :icon_cheers:
