British Pale Ale
Beer Style: English Ordinary Bitter, Classic English Pale Ale
Recipe Type: all-grain
Yield: 5 gallons
Description:
Adapted from 'Back Bench Bitter' in the September/October 2016 Zymurgy magazine (original recipe found on page 37). The grain bill was increased 50% to achieve target OG. The SRM ended up a fraction off from the original recipe. Roasted CaraMillet malt was used to substitute the Carastan malt in the original recipe. Carastan malt can be thought of like a 30 to 40 SRM crystal malt that imparts a caramel/toffee flavor with hints of toasted bread.
