Well Wez told me if i didn't do Big Kenny as my next brew he'd fly over here and kick my green paddy ass so here it goes :lol: Mash started at 6.pm


4800gm Pale Malt 97%
70gm Crystal Malt 1.5%
50gm Roasted Barley 1%
25gm Chocolate Malt 0.5%
71gm Fuggles [4.5%] (90 min) Hops ~30 IBU
44gm Styrian Goldings [3.%] (15 min)

Fermeting with S-04

I might add some 80 degrees hops for aroma if you have no problems with that Wez :unsure:

It's your brew AT :) , I like it how it is as the aroma hops seem to be just 'in their place' not in your face.

I fancy a bit of in your face, after my mess up with the Nelson Sauvin which turned out great my appreciation of hops has trebled. I think i'll brew some kind of hoppy monster next :D

Hope it's going well AT.

I'm learning that, in regards to hops, nothing exceeds like excess. :wink:
