Haters' gonna hate
Been a while since the last brew, so dusted off the gear after a keg blew last night for a crack at a long-lost style: Australian bitter ale. Now that WLP059 Melbourne Ale has been released and is in the mail I brewed a Tooth's White Horse Ale thanks to Korev.
1.470 kg MO
1.370 kg JW pils
0.335 kg polenta (flaked maize was on the recipe but I don't have access to any)
0.875 kg raw sugaz
20g EKG and 11g Super Pride at 60 mins
21g EKG at 20 mins
~37 IBU
Came in a little high at 1.051 which I'll dilute down for a 1.048 OG hopefully chewing away to 1.011 using WLP059 MELBOURNE ALE YEAST. I've gotta say the whole idea that I'm brewing a beer that hasn't been in existence for decades has an element of excitement about it. Really looking forward to knocking a few back on the porch as the weather warms up and might even send a few bottles for my grandfather to relive a bit of his youth.
