Alright so since my Bollocks ale was liked by many and seemed to be a hit, I decided to make it again. This time with a slight adjustment to my Carastan malt. I wanted a hint more toffee flavor and kept the rest of the flavors the same. Still this beer will mimic that from something across the pond. Since I literally just pitched the yeast there will still be more to come about this Sweet Brew.
9lbs Breiss Light Liquid Malt Extract
10oz Carasan/Carastan 30/37
4oz English Crystal 70-80L
4oz Special Roast
2.0oz Fuggles @60min (6.0 Alpha Acids)
.5oz Sonnet-Goldings @15min (4.1 Alpha Acids)
.5oz Sonnet-Goldings @10min
.25oz Fuggles @ 7min (5.2Alpha Acids)
.25oz Fuggles @ 7min (5.2Alpha Acids)
.5oz Sonnet-Goldings @5min
.5oz Sonnet-Goldings @1min
1 Whirlfloc Tablet @ 15 min
1/2tsp Wyeast Yeast Nutrient @10
WLP 005 British Ale Yeast
Just transferred to my secondary. Gravity at 1.022 Can't wait to get this one into my first keg! The beer is delicious. Toffee flavors are excellent. Has a great slight bready taste and the beer is delicious.
Just kegged this bad boy and the final gravity came in at 1.020. So now the PSI is set to 32 and force carbonation is in effect. So tomorrow night we shall check out the progress and then Monday afternoon it should be ready for drinking!
It came out great! I am really excited as to how well balanced this beer came out to be. The toffee tones are a little more pronounced yet still subtle. Anyways the beer is delicious and as you can see it is light brown and really clear, well the lighting isn't the greatest but it is still good. So we just had a heat wave and the beer now has a delicious banana bread aroma that is so enticing I drank 2 tankards full.
