Fuggle

[phonos]

Bit of an old thread, I know.
I've got a fair bit of Fuggles that needs utilising. Anyone got any all-fuggle (or mostly-fuggle) recipes worth sharing?
cheers
Pete

Thanks heaps for the ideas guys.
Looking forward to getting that fermenter cranking again in January.

I'm looking to brew a batch of Old Peculier, haven't had any for around 20 years and although Purvis/ SlowBeer list this, it is never in stock. Also, I remember this was 6.2%. These days it appears to be 5.6%. My proposed recipe is

Pale malt 5.2 kg
Crystal 60L 320g
Wheat malt 200G
Black Malt 100g
Treacle 250G
Hops as above

I've increased the pale malt to get ABV up to 6.2% - Is this best thing to do, or would I be better off dropping some malt and adding dex instead (to avoid too much cloying sweetness). I've got some Ringwood yeast slurry. Would this be good yeast to use or is there a better liquid yeast to use for OP?
