Beer 3 for my wedding goes in the mashtun tomorrow, I have been building a starter of Wy1007 since last weekend from the kolsch I brewed earlier and have been offered a filter so hopefully this will be clear in time for the big day

I have gone for a "traditional" grist I think rather than a million different specialties to let the german munich malt speak for itself. Plus the only specialties I have on hand that would fit the bill is 500g of melanoidin which I might throw in for good measure

[Tony]

Tonight im brewing another English Strong Ale. My state comp winning one has been entered into the state comp again and i have 2 bottles on standby for the AABC if it makes it............ that leaves me 3 bottles.

And they will be enjoyed at christmas with family i expect.

I drank most of it in the first 12 months thinking it was shit. All the crystal ect made it a bit much but i moved and the remainder got stored in a cold dark garage for over a year. On cracking one i realised my error in drinking it young.

So i have decided to brew a small (17L) batch each year, ferment it and put it away for at least 12 months. Maybe one in a stubby to try at 6 months to check carb levels, infection ect.

Will make a simple label up with year of vintage on it. looking forward to being able to sample vintage beers with friends in years to come.

here is what im brewing tonight. It will be no chilled, like the origional one.

cheers

[Dave86]

Just made the bittering addition on tony's ekg bitter.

Made a few changes to suit what I had on hand, the crystal is made up of JWM crystal and caraamber. Had to use some NZ goldings to make up the difference of the hopping as well as added a 5 minute addition. Fermenting with the 1968 london ESB, should be pretty tasty I reckon. :super:

 

[Tony]

Ahhh yes this one is getting a following like the LCBA clone

Planning to do it myself very soon with the same WLP002 im brewing the old ale with.

Will make a nice break from the run of lagers i have in fermenters

cheers and enjoy

I haven't tried an english ale before but I'm liking the sounds of this one!! can you tell me what the mash schedule is for this?
what wyeast pack should I use for this?
cheers

[kook]

Man that's a highly interesting looking beer. :beerbang:

Hey Kook can you post back and let us know how it turns out? I'd really like to know. :icon_cheers:

Warren -

Tasting Notes:

Deep dark ruby colour, lovely clear red highlights when held to light. Medium-large off white head, fading to small after a minute or two.

Initial aroma is balsamic, berries and cherries. Some citrus notes and a faint malty bread aroma there in the background. Mouthfeel is medium-thin, prickly due to pH and carbonation. Flavour starts suprisingly malty, with some rum/dark sugar notes. Finishes tart and acidic.


I'm actually pretty impressed, it's quite similar to Goudenband, if not a bit more acidic. You'd never guess the grist was 100% wheat, it is quite clear when held to light.

Will post more tasting notes later down the track, as I only bottled half the batch. The rest (~ 9L) is slowly eating away at around 2kg worth of red grape must.

Just a single infusion mash will work fine @ 66 deg.

Use any good english ale yeast but something a bit drier works well.

WLP005

WLP002 for something a bit sweeter
SO-4 for a dry yeast

Doing a Saison tomorrow, with Bourghal.

How much bourghal? I love that Saison's have so much room for grainy/spicey/fruity flavours.

Promash reckons approx 300IBU for the Southern Pride. It's off to a great start and the smell is amazing! There were half a kilo of hops in there, and you can taste it.
