Can anyone point me in the direction of a good traditional welsh bitter recipe? Thanks
Thanks ed. When are you adding the sugar? Full boil?
I usually toss it in for the last 10 minutes.
I love Double Dragon Ale, but I cannot find it anywhere. I'd love to brew a clone, but I do not have the equipment for 10 Gallon batch, especially not an all grain batch. How's this for an extract approximation? Is anyone good at these conversions? I cut out the sugar. What was it doing for the beer beyond adding alcohol?
6 lb. William's Brittish Pale Malt Extract Syrup
3 oz. Wheat Spray DME
4 oz. British Crystal 55L
60 mins
0.75 Challenger
0.5 Whitbread Golding
15 mins
0.25 Whitbread Golding
Hmm... thanks. I was using a chart to do the conversions, but it was hard to figure out what the real intension was. So, is wheat the "secret" for Double Dragon? Double Dragon doesn't taste like every-other-bitter.
Someone on another sited toured the brewery tour noted that they only had two kinds of hops: Challenger and Goldings. So, I cut the Bramling Cross. What does it add to the flavor profile? Is it noticeable? I figured that having it in the bittering boil would reduce any distinctive flavor.
I picked the Williams syrup because they are known for specifically using British pale. Maybe it doesn't matter?
