More on Marris Otter

[Gymrat]

I lift a Blackstone Marris Otter Ale in your honor. Great deal...



Since you have so much on hand, you should try the Blackstone recipe... almost a SMaSH, and oh, so good. Dave (their founding brewer) gave me this recipe...

Amount Item Type % or IBU
9.33 lb Maris Otter (Crisp) (4.0 SRM) Grain 92.56 %
0.75 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L (60.0 SRM) Grain 7.44 %
1.50 oz Williamette [5.50 %] (60 min) Hops 28.5 IBU
1.00 oz Goldings, East Kent [5.00 %] (5 min) Hops 3.4 IBU

Beer Profile

Est Final Gravity: 1.018 SG

I just happen to have all of that except the yeast on hand. That is very close to a 90 Schilling Scottish Ale.

Roger, would you mind picking me up a bag and dropping it by? I'll have some cold beer ready for you when you come.
Oh, and bring Ralph. I think it's time he and Charlie get to meet.

That sounds like a terrific idea
Right now I am thinking MO might be a nice base malt for an IPA.

Mmmmmm. You can make a lot of good beer with that.

That stuff even makes a fantastic SMaSH

Yeah.. Even with American hops. A Maris Otter Simcoe SMaSH I made some time back was one of my favorite beers ever.
