A bank holiday brew day tomorrow 8) Townes IPA seems popular at the moment so I'm going with this:

STOP PRESS : Just had the green light to brew this today 8)

Brewlength 50L
Target OG 1045 (based on reduced efficiency of 70%)
Target IBU 40
60 min mash 67 degrees
60 min boil
Batch Sparging

10.4kg Marris Otter Pale Malt 96%
430g Torrified Wheat 4%
160g Cascade 5.75%aa (60 min) 40IBU
100g Cascade 5.75%aa (steeped after the boil at 80 degrees for 30 mins)

I'll be splitting the batch into 2x 25L FV's so may pitch s04 into one and us05 into the other :-k

Looks a good brew - I'll have to add this to my list - am looking for a good summer bottling ale.


Good luck with the brew!

no brewing for me today - off to the beerfest in Yarmouth now - missed it last night - sold out!

It's polished and doesn't smell of farts anymore, in fact it's very clean tasting...very nice 8)
