All grain number three at the weekend - this time something slightly stronger and darker. I want to try Orfy’s Hobgoblin recipe (from Jim’s Beer Kit) - the Wychwood Brewery is only about 5 miles up the road from here - but I need to order some Styrians and Carapils in, so had to go for something else. Clone Brews has a version of Theakston’s Old Peculier, which is somewhat different to other recipes, and probably not dark enough to be right, but none the less, I’m hoping it’s at the least going to turn out a nice pint (and who cares if it’s not spot on if it’s nice and drinkable).
