for me ,very very tasty. a beer I would drink in a pub in England where I am from…Cheers. I have had two bottles so I hope that this makes sense!!!

This recipe looks very interesting to me. It doesn’t fit any specific style guidelines, but I bet it is very tasty anyway! It looks sort of like an Irish red ale, but lighter in color and with more complex malt flavors. Thanks for sharing.

Thank’s for the compliment. I made it up to a degree. It was one of those experiments that was a mixture of other recipes. I do like a malty flavour with low hop taste.
I have just tasted this one after a week in the bottle,and I am very pleased with the flavour and smell!

6 lbs Briese pale 2 row. 1060- 1014.
1/2 lbs Briese Vienna.
10oz light brown sugar.

7g apollo + 2 g Willamett in boil.
9 g willamette last 15 minutes
Nottingham ale yeast.

Put the grain in at 80c.
mashed 1 1/2 hours
1 hour boil super vigorous on Edelmetal burner.Started with 5 gallons ended with 3.

Bottled straight from primary fermenter .primed in bucket. I think about 2-2 1/2 oz table sugar.
Brewed 10/11/2014. bottled 11/16/2014. Tasted 11/22/2014. Really nice and smooth. A kind of apple or pear aroma. It taste really good and I am sure if I can keep my greedy hands off, the beer will get even better. :cheers:
