Taste Notes
Copper coloured with a reddish hue. Head is foamy and off-white in colour, however head retention is low (may be due to force carbonation). There is a low aroma of maltiness. Clean and smooth tasting beer with dry finish, the bitterness is well balanced. Caramel/Toffee notes up front, with stone fruits, raisons and biscuit in the back of palate. Very morish and a great winter beer.Notes
2 weeks in the fermenter, then cold crashed for 2 days, before transferring to the Keg. 6 x 740mL bottles also filled, and primed with sugar drops.
Next brew, substitute the roasted barley (1200 EBC) for a chocolate malt grain around 600EBC, to improve colour (and get that real vibrant red). Trial Carafoam to improve head retention. Bulk prime keg with sugar. Use a lager yeast and ferment at low temp (increase Diacetyl).This Recipe Has Not Been Rated
