This was my first SMaSH brew and as is normally the case with SMaSH brews, the primary intent was to learn the flavor of Marris Otter malt and Fuggles hop. I have to say, they go very well together. The only commercial example I have to compare it to is Redhook ESB, which probably isn't the best example, but it will have to do. It's quite a bit lighter in color than the RH(pic below), but it tastes much the same, perhaps a bit dryer and with a smoother biterness (I assume due to the Fuggles). The hop flavor is nonetheless similar to the RH and, in fact, is so similar that I would bet RH uses Fuggles in the ESB. I feel this is an excellent session beer that many, including your BMC friends, will enjoy. Here is the recipe. Let me know if anyone brews it and what you think.
