Has anyone come across this brewery, mentioned in Stan Hieronymus Hops book, Italian passion for beer :thumb: Forgot the link

This is up from tomorrow from a recipe from Ron Pattinson and Kristen England 1885 Younger XP A Scottish IPA with hops from USA, Germany and England, and a true IPA because it was shipped to India, along with Australia, the Far East, and anywhere else where British armed forces were based. The...

For those of us that remember, this is interesting http://www.retrowow.co.uk/retro_britain/keg_bitter/60s_and_70s_beer.html

I have been reading Ron Pattinson's blogs recently http://barclayperkins.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/mitchell-butler-mild-ale-1935-1993.html, and I think we should all make the effort to brew more mild this year. A completely underrated beer, and probably not widely know about in various parts of the...

This is a very nice beer, and is a style of beer brewed pre prohibition in the USA. Aleman introduced it to me HERE :thumb: and I'm planning this for the weekend. This is the 3rd time brewing it and I can highly recommend it, a nice clean, crisp lager with some malty and corn flavour. I'm...

Does anyone have any news of Worcester Hop Shop. I placed an order yesterday, which is still pending according to their website, I haven't received any email acknowledgement, and when I call the phone is just ringing out. I've ordered several times before without any problems.

As SWMBO is away the next couple of weeks you can guess what I will be doing. First up on Saturday is another recipe from Mitch Steele's book IPA. This is a beer from Thornbridge that is no longer brewed. Named by Pete Brown (author of Hops & Glory) because Seaforth was one of the first ships...

This is planned for Sat or Sun, and the recipe comes from Mitch Steele's book IPA and I'm hoping that it is better than the real thing, I was a bit underwhelmed by the bottle I tried the other week tbh. Because of the amount of hops, 470g including dry hops, and a 23L brew length, I'm lowering...

I use the 30L white plastic buckets as FV's, some have now got a bit of a deposit on the sides, from darker grains and hops I suppose; what is the best way to remove this? thanks in advance :cheers:

So this is planned for tomorrow from a recipe by Jamil Zainasheff on the Jamil Show http://thebrewingnetwork.com/ Dortmunder is a balanced beer with a touch of sweetness, the malt of a Helles and the hops of a Pilsner, and is a light golden colour. I'm using WLP830 and have stepped this up to...

Another big American beer planned for the morning, I got the recipe here but am using Crisps Maris Otter. I've got a big starter of WLP007 ready (300bn cells required, but I think I have more than that) it is a very floccy yeast and I'm wondering whether I'll have trouble bottle conditioning...

I think I'll be able to get this on tomorrow afternoon/evening; my first American Amber; based on Jamil's recipe for a Red Rocket clone (Bear Republic Brewing Co, CA), but using standard crystal for dark crystal and using Columbus instead of Horizon, which means I'm using the three C's :D 23L...
