Rooster, can we match it?

Post by bandit » Fri Dec 01, 2006 1:54 am

My wife and I have found this wonderful Pale Ale brewed in Knaresborough called Roosters YPA. the info says this:

YPA®
(Yorkshire Pale Ale)
4.3% ABV
Gold Medal: Summer Ale Cat.
World Beer Cup 2006 Seattle
Pale gold colour. Raspberry aroma. Long aromatic finish. Medium bitterness. Maris Otter malt, soft Yorkshire water and Challenger and Styrian hops.

How do we get a raspberry aroma into the beer and how do we use the computerised software to try and mimic this wonderful beer? Any suggestions would be appreciated as I really think this is the next TTL :?: :?: :?:

Presumably the aroma comes from hops but raspberry doesn't sound like Styrians to me - more Bramling Cross perhaps (perhaps they're more blackcurrant?)
