Beer Style: Extra Special/Strong Bitter (English Pale Ale)  (8C)
Recipe Type: extract
Yield: 5 US gallons

Extra Special/Strong Bitter (English Pale Ale)

Description:

This was a little hoppy for my taste. I'd probably cut out the 1/4 ounce of Goldings at the end... Other than that, it made an incredible likeness of Bass ale and have had several friends comment on how much like Bass it really is...

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds, light DME
  • 3 pounds, plain light malt extract
  • 2 ounces, roast barley
  • 8 ounces, crushed crystal malt
  • 2 ounces, Fuggles (pellets)
  • 1 ounce, Goldings (pellets)
  • 1/4 ounce, Goldings (pellets)
  • 1/2 ounce, Goldings (pellets)
  • Ale yeast (I used Edme but wanted to try Wyeast)
  • gypsum and Irish moss, if necessary
