Anyone have a recipe for this? I've got this from the website;

ABV 4.9%
OG 1050
Colour EBC 55
Bitterness EBU 35
Hops: Goldings, Challenger, Liberty
Malt: Maris Otter

How would you put this together and, where are they getting the color from if they are just using MO :?:

They're not giving away as much info as you think.

Maris Otter is the barley variety, not how it's malted. It could be pale, crystal, chocolate........etc

Of course. Thinking about it, I could play with various ingredients in Beersmith and try and get the colour right. Be interested to know if anyone has tried a recipe for this though....

I'd say there's a very good chance that some of the runnings are 'caramelised' for this brew, that would certainly add colour.

I've no idea if this would be close but, having played with a few ingredients in Beersmith, it gives me an ale with an OG of 1050, 31 IBU's and a nice red colour. The software deals with colour in SRM's rather than EBC's so I've only gone on the display colour. Vossy's idea of caramelising some of the wort sounds like a good idea.

based on 23L and 65% efficiency;

5kg Pale Malt
550g Crystal
50g Chocolate
45g Goldings (5%) 90mins
25g Challenger (6.1%) 90mins
25g Liberty (4.3%) 15mins

Doesn't look like I'm going to be able to get another brew in before mid-August now, so I wont be able to try it out. If anyone else has anything to add, I'd be interested.

Good work Buzz,its worth giving it a try.I won't be brewing for a while either,(I am going into Hospital tomorrow) will experiment as soon as I can.
Googling this morning,and Roger Protz and a couple of others say Wheat Malt is also used.
Maybe try a little of that too.

By the way you can change from SRM's to EBC's by clicking "Options"on Beersmith.
