I suppose English-style Summer Ale would be the closest... but it's not at all what I had in mind. I just wanted to play with a really pale beer, fairly unusual for me. This is possibly the palest beer I've ever brewed! I've got some ideas in that department with other yeasts but I've been busy and haven't had a chance to order them in.
That hoppy porter infuenced by the first PKB as a farewell brew for Brother Bob.
Mash on, sparge & mashout water on the stove, got a coffee, watching the grey sky blow past the window and waiting for the next shower to blow through the door .. waht more could I want .. 'cept maybe a bacon sammie
A Wheat Beer today, not a big fan of Wheat beers but the one I did earlier this year turned out so nice I thought I'd give it another go. About time I brewed something under 5% for a change.
2.5Kg Global Pilsen Malt
2.0Kg Kibbled Wheat
0.5Kg Flaked Oats
Steeped the Kibbled Wheat for 45 minutes at 50C to gelatinise it, then added it to the Mash.
Mashed @ 66C
Batch Sparged
60 Min Boil
11gm of Nelson Sauvin (11.6%AA) @ 60
25gm Crushed Coriander Seed @ 15
25gm Bitter Orange Peel @ 15
Yeast Fermentis S23
OG 1.040 should make a nice quaffable early Summer drink.
