Hi everyone.
I just kegged up an AG Scottish Ale made to Jamil's 70/- recipe.
I had to sub a few of the goldings for first gold... no big deal. I would have expected as first gold is higher alpha, less hop flavour. As the style is not supposed to be hoppy, I wasn't too concerned.
It tastes quite hoppy!
I get a really strong whiff of English hops and it tastes much more like a good bitter! Interesting since it only had hops at 60m. It goes to show how much hop character can come through with a single addition.
