LOML just returned from a business trip to Bonn and London. She brought back three very nice pils , a Munich hells, and 3 kilos of McVities digestive biscuits. I have a strange love affair with these damn biscuits. But 6 tubes?? Oy!
As a half hearted joke and experiment, I am thinking of crushing up one of these tubes of McVities and throwing them in a small batch of an English pale ale. Samuel Smiths pale ale being my standard.
Is this a dumb idea?? There is some fat in the cookies, so I might have issues with head retention.
Must be my day to Google stuff from the forum. Had to search a few things I never heard of and McVities digestive biscuits was one.
From what I can gather they are mostly grain, one being course brown wheat flower that could make your beer cloudy but who cares in an experimental beer. I would try it. Really doesn’t sound that odd and could come out great. If you do please post how it came out.
