Just a quick question after searching with no joy.
I have some Lyles Golden Syrup and was wondering if it is worth priming my brew with this when bottling. Will it give flavour etc or will it do SFA and I should use it in the brewing process in a larger quantity? I have a coopers draught and coopers real ale on the brew, both with 500g light dry malt, draught has 300g dextrose, real ale has 235g dextrose, 65g raw sugar (ran out of dex). Tasting them both doing a hydrometer reading, and the real ale tastes great, the draught a bit too bittery, and I was thinking of adding the syrup to this, just to change it up and experiment a bit.
Thoughts and comments please as these are only my 5 and 6th brews ever.
