Better late than never. The obligatory post of Recipes for those willing to share of their Medal Winning Beers, over the last couple of years, I've found this thread to be very insightful, in the improvement of my beers.
So post your recipes here, and give some people inspiration. Here's my English Brown Ale - Black Sheep Yorkshire Brown
33/50 - Bronze

Nice one, My porter received a lowly 8/50, lol. Any tips you can offer to improve?
This was only the second porter I have made, the first was an absolute disaster. Somehow I stuffed up on volumes and a 5% beer turned into 8% beast that was severely under pitched and tasted nasty. So based on this I couldn't really offer anything you probably don't already know.
Your English brown looks good. I have some left over fuggles and EKG so might have to give it a go. I have a pack of US-04 to use up how do you think it would go with that?
S04 would work, but I would suggest the correct yeast, its pretty important to the beer, that ester profile is really nice, dark fruits etc.
If you had to use a dry yeast, I would probably suggest the Newcastle dark or Burton ale from MJ.
Thanks Rob I'll give the wyeast a go.
No worries Ryan. Fresh Yeast is best :)
Anyone know Brendan Bransgrove? I'd be really interested to hear about his gold medal session ale. You know, summer time...
Hi,
Here is my best result recipe, 37/50 in the robust porter style.
I adapted it a bit from the original recipe off the beer smith recipes site called "power pack porter", most of the judging comment suggested increasing the dark grains a bit, from memory I think I reduced them from the original.
I like this thread, always interesting to see what others are up to, Richards beers sound awesome!
Cheers all
