I`ve been lurking on the Posh part of JBK, `All Grain Brewing` and I am devastated!!
The Posh people on JBK are planning to brew their own IPA and we lowly Kit Brewers haven`t been invited!
I say we rise up against this affront to our Skills and Knowledge and fight them head on!
Paint ourselves Blue, hold our empty Cans with Jagged Edges above our heads and shout `Beerdom, we want our Beerdom`!

This is their recipe which I risked Life and Limb to `Borrow`.
The recipe below can be regarded as my choice/official Jim's ESB : those that want to modify it can by all means do so, but they will be making a variation on the official version.
To keep it simple lets go with: -
85% Maris Otter,
5% Pale Crystal,
5% Caramalt and
5% Torrefied Wheat
...to make OG 50.
Bittering hops Challenger to 50 IBU ,
15 mins from end Progress (40g),
Flame out EKGs (40g).
Own choice of yeast. Optional dry hop with EKGs in cask.
The late hops will affect the bitterness slightly, but not enough to make a huge difference.
(EDITED to add late hop quantities)
So, the Posh people are making an IPA, So can we!


I say Coopers IPA
1Kg Med Spraymalt
Same Hops as above.
Any Takers?
Or shall I take this Battle on my own?
Rise Up, Rise Up! Let`s make some noise from the Kit Boys!




Armchair can be the independent `Taste Tester` because he likes to get FREE beer!


Game On!
