Thanks I’ll check them out.

Those of you in the US, where are you getting your UK hops? It’s fairly easy to get EKG & Fuggle, but looking for hops such as Challenger, Progress, Target, First Gold, Pilgrim, etc. in 1-2oz bags. thanks for any links.

Hope it turns out great! For me a dark mild is the perfect beer around this time of year. As the cold settles in, that extra crystal chewiness of malt is certainly welcomed. I really liked this recipe.

Couple of snaps of my Xmas Dark Mild 🎄 this is the recipe of Hydes Owd Oak (former Hyde’s Dark Mild) from a brewery in Manchester from the CAMRA recipe book. I use Maris Otter for the base, chocolate malt, crystal Bottle conditioned and tasty next to the wood stove tonight in New England...

@duncan_disorderly you are preaching to the choir here, bitter is by far one of my favorite styles, but yeah should be in cask. There’s honestly no better beer in the world than a dry hopped, freshly tapped bitter on cask around 3%, I never grow tired of it. I had some decent Timothy Taylors...

Been a while, but I got around to brewing my Xmas beer this year a couple weeks ago. From the CAMRA book, Hydes Dark Mild Maris Otter Chocolate malt Crystal malt Fuggles EKG Verdant yeast I’ll post a photo once it carbs up. Hopefully going to start brewing more real ales, I was over in...

Yeah that’s why I say I’m “inspired” by that beer, just taking what is on their website for ingredients - no brewer will ever “clone” it 😁🍺

Here’s my latest Landlord-inspired Pale Ale. I’ve brewed this a few times and really enjoy the hop combo. Turned out great. 100% golden promise Fuggle, EKG, Styrian Goldings Verdant Bottle Conditioned

There’s plenty of recipes on Ron’s blog - the posts start with “Let’s Brew” http://barclayperkins.blogspot.com/2017/06/lets-brew-1862-barclay-perkins-xx.html?m=1

Packaging - just wanted to pass on a tip (possibly). I’ve been brewing for a pretty long time and started bottle conditioning, went to kegging and even cask beer with an engine. I’m now back to bottle conditioning and will probably be staying there. I brew 80% British style and 15% Belgian...

Founders Porter is the most accessible and fresh if you are in the US. I buy a couple 6packs a year Porter | Robust Porter | Founders Brewing Co.

If I had the option in those malts, I’d go with Maris Otter, but yeah it’s confusing- the Pale ale malt that briess makes tries to mimic Maris Otter, but it’s not that malt. I’m probably confusing you more 😂

Not sure I’ve noticed vanilla in that yeast, but it’s become my favorite British dry yeast and now pretty much use that and Nottingham on occasion. It reminds me of Conan which is also a British yeast, has good fruitiness and floccs nicely. It also ferments dry which I appreciate, but I also...

I just brewed a Landlord Recipe this past weekend and always go with 100% golden promise - I feel like the hop bill is what makes that beer unique. It’s my 3rd time brewing it and am amazed at how complex the beer turns out. I like verdant to ferment it but I’m not going for a clone, I’m just...

Brewed this beer from the Camra BYO British Real Ale. This is a the recipe of Haviestoun Ptarmigan Golden ale, a Scottish Brewery. I dropped a couple of malts (black and crystal) as their recipe on their website was updated from the book. Very tasty and clearing up nicely. Bottle conditioned.

Ended up at morebeer, still the best price with free ship and 10% off. Ritebrew was also a good option but a bit more $ with the shipping

Thanks for the info, will look at the above recommendations - I’ve been part of Homebrew club, it has fizzled out but yeah we used to do buys from local breweries. I brew small now, 2.5 gallon so the 5lb bags work great for my beers.

Hello - shipping has really gone up and I’m wondering who has decent prices on base malts online these days. I’m not looking for full bags but maybe 10lbs x2? Is morebeer free ship at $59 still the best? Any ideas? Thanks.

My Timothy Taylor Landlord clone- 2.5 gallons for bottle conditioning. Fermenting with Verdant ipa yeast. 😋

I’ve done it a few times to increase bitterness, but didn’t get much aroma. I steeped hops in a French press at about 160 degrees for 10-15 minutes. Works great for hop tea added to sparkling water.
