I brewed a Black Cat Moorhouse clone and bottled it tonight, Having never tasted a British MILD I was unsure what to really expect except all you guys seemed to love it.
Well - after all the bottles were full and the bucket was starting to burp I poured out a glass and took a sip . . . . ok a gulp (sips are useless).
VERY VERY good.. sort of a smokey malty maybe molasses??? smooth
I can not wait for it to carb up a little (1.8oz corn sugar).
3.1%ABV which is a little low (mini mash got a little high - fixed that problem)
CHEERS
3.5lb Extra Pale LME
1.5lb Pale Ale Grain
10oz Chocolate Malt
0.5oz Peated Malt
6oz Crystal 60L
3/4 oz Fuggle 60 min
1/4oz Fuggle 15 min
White Labs English Ale 002
1.8 oz corn sugar carbing - could have gone 2oz I suppose
