Brewer's Notes

Pale ale made with 100% BB ale malt and 100% NZ green bullet hop flowers. The last hop addition of 22gm goes into the secondary fermenter.

A very simple, back to basic beer to make. Ideal for AG noobs.

I cracked open a bottle of this after a week and it was magnificent. I will have to do this one again and again. I love the Green Bullet flavour and the smell is supurb.

Cheers fellas, I was thinking the other day of doing another one of these soon but using 1056 instead of Nottingham.

 

[jbirbeck]

I actually used 1084 as I had been using it to do a few stouts. worked a treat.

Thanks also for the recipe! This was one of my first AG beers and you're right - very simple, but with great results. Reminds me of some of the NZ ales I've tasted over the years, no doubt from the hops. I also substituted S05 for Nottingham, but plan to try it again one day with the latter.

Cheers,
Kris.

Bump.
I've recently brewed an all GB ale which is in cold conditioning at the moment. Winkle tipped me off to your recipe on another thread.

Mine is lower in hops

4000 galaxy pilsener
500 rice
500 Chinese maltose syrup into fermenter

20 GB 90 mins
10 GB 10 mins
15 GB hop tea into secondary

US-05


I'm aiming more for a 'fake lager' than an ale but depending how it turns out I'll go a bit more towards your recipe next time. Love that Green Bullet, pity we live opposite ends of the country as a taste off would be interesting :icon_cheers:
