Taste Notes
This beer scored a 42 and took a gold medal in the 2013 Arizona Society of Homebrewers Oktoberfest competition for Scottish/Irish Ale (9C)Notes
This recipe is very close to Brewing Classic Styles - Scottish Export -80. I have changed the yeast and slightly modified the amounts of the specialty grains.
This recipe mashes at a very high temperature, 158F. I typically achieve a mash effiency of 84%. With this recipe it drops down to about 76%. Because of this after the sparge is complete a gravity check indicates that my pre-boil gravity is 3 to 4 points low. I typically will adjust with DME to bring the pre-boil gravity up to 1.054.
The finishing gravity is also relatively high 1.018 and returns a nice malty character which is what you want for this style.This Recipe Has Not Been Rated
