I bought a pack of 1187 a little while back thinking I would try it in the next batch of my brown ale. Wondering what other styles people are using this strain in with good results.
Irrenarzt said:I have used this in both 60 and 90 minute IPA clones with tremendous success. I've made both recipes numerous times and they were fantastic beers. Helps that I made something to dispense the hops as well as I don't like having to do 60 or 90 additions.
I think I want to make the 60 again now that you mention it. Thanks for bringing up this topic.
Ringwood is a great strain, it makes excellent IPA's, browns, porters, stouts, and some very nice English pale ales. It can be a bit finicky at times and will produce a bit of diacetyl if you let it. Ferment it cool for malty, neutral flavor or at the higher end for lots of fruit esters. Give it a nice diacetyl rest regardless.
Very cool thing ya got there Irrenarzt!
