Taste Notes
This beer is one of my favorites. Very fruity and a little sweet. If you added spice to it, it would make a fabulous Christmas beer. Everyone askes me to keep making this.
Lyles Golden syrup is similiar to corn syrup, but not exactly. Lyles has a much nNotes
1/2 c. Lyles - 1oz. corriander - 1 oz. ginger go in boil for 20 minutes
Add champagne yeast 4 days after fermentation starts
Simmer the Belgian sugar in a quart of water to dissolve, then add to boil. This helps to keep it from burning to bottom of kettle!
