I ran off the wort from the Burton Bridge Bitter into a sterilised pressure barrel that contained 65 grams of dried sprayed malt and 6 grams of white sugar. I took a sample of the beer. It tasted nice and bitter, just how I like it and will be in the barrel for about 3 months. It should then be very drinkable. The final gravity was about 1.009 and this should give an ABV of about 3.8%. So the goblins were not present this time and I therefore pronounce another successful beer has been made.
Monday should be another brew day. This time I will be attempting a clone of Camerons Strongarm. This beer should have an ABV of 4.4%. I have to ramp up the beer brewing a little to ensure that there are a sufficient number of different beers available for the 2nd Annual Orchard Road Beer Festival.
An account of successes and failures in attempts to reproduce some of the finest ales found in the UK and tastings of some of the many real ales and beers available commercially.
YOU MAY NOT LIKE ALL OF THE ALES ON OFFER BUT YOU CAN'T DENY THAT REAL ALE IS TASTY.
