Old Ale

Description:

A true pleasure to drink, an award winner too. Actually not hoppy (~30 IBU) but malty. A great winter brew at about 5.8% ABV. A Blue Ribbon beer at the 2008 Clark Co., WA fair. They know their beer here and this ranked 3rd highest beer in the county. If you're looking for a good Winter Warmer/English Old Ale, here it is. Brewing this one again for next winter.

Procedure:

Steep the malted grains at 150 degrees F for 30 minutes. I used a grain bag for this one. Boil started with 4.5 gallons drinking water. Two cans of Coopers Liquid Malt Extract (6.6 lbs.) and 1.0 lb. of Coopers Light DME added for full boil time. Add hops and Irish Moss per the schedule above. At flameout, the boil volume was 3 gallons. Cooled the wort and poured into 6 gallon primary fermenter with 2 gallons cold spring water. Pitched yeast when cooled to < 74 degrees F. Fermentation began in 24 hours. Bottled within two weeks and conditioned in warm room to carbonate.
