Notes: Clone of McEwan's Scottish Ale - ABV target ~ 8% ABV

Make yeast starter at least 12 hours prior to brewing.

Brewing OG = 1.090
Ferment 7 days at 72º
Rack to secondary and add 1 oz. East Kent Goldings SG = 1.028
Ferment 35 more days at 72º
Bottle SG = 1.022 ABV = 8.8%

Make INVERT SUGAR 12 hours prior to brewing - recipe:
½ lb. pure cane sugar ("Turbinado" Sugar is best)
1/8 tsp citric acid
3/4 cup water
Dissolve sugar, add citric acid, and simmer at low heat for 20 minutes to 2 hours.

Steep/Mash grains for 30 min @ 156º Sparge @ 170º.
Add 6 lbs amber DME at boil.
Add 1 oz Kent Goldings at boil.
Add 3.3 lbs dark LME @ 30 minutes.

Appearance: A blackish brown body with a slight reddish hue when viewed in front of a light and a pleasant dense tan head

Aroma: Caramelly malt with hints of cherry and spice playing softly in the background.

Taste: Big, sweet malt flavors immediately fill the mouth with dark fruit and vanilla behind it, and a slight tang coming through on the aftertaste.

Mouthfeel: Smooth, thick and almost oily (but not in a bad way!) with small tingling bubbles. You can feel a bit of heat from the alcohol.

Drinkability: This is a sipper for sure.

Notes: 1 Packet US-05 (any American Ale yeast can be substituted)

You can also do this as a true common/steam beer and pitch a lager yeast (I've used saflager) at room temps, much how California Commons like Anchor Steam are brewed. Dec 2014 update I'm going to suggest that everyone at some point try this as a steam beer...Lager yeast at room temp without lagering. I just kegged it, and even uncarbed it has an amazing flavor... steam beers, have an "off" flavor that is not as clean as a properly brewed lager...taste anchor steam and you'll get it, especially if you compare it to Anchor Lager. There's definitely a funkiness about it... something unique... Try it with this beer. It my be the permanent way I brew this beer from now on... I'll keep you posted...and if it works out, I may change the official yeast to saflager for this beer. If you try it this way, as a steam beer...especially if you've brewed it with ale yeast before and can compare it, I would love you opinion.

Single Infusion, LIGHT body, batch sparge.

Mash Temp 148 degrees
Sparge Temp 168 degrees

I primed this beer with table sugar rather than corn sugar.

Notes: Mengden meske- og skyllevann du bør bruke kommer an på utstyret og metoden du brygger med. Som et anslag kan vi si at du kan bruke 20 l meskevann og 14,5 l skyllevann til dette ølet. Noen bryggemaskiner (f.eks. Speidel Braumeister) kan kreve større mengder meskevann. Sjekk alltid manualen på utstyret du bruker.

Mesking på 67 grader i 60 min. Utmesk på 77 grader i 5 min hvis du har mulighet til å øke temperatur i mesken.

Kjøl ned til 17 grader før pitching av gjær.

Gjæring på 18 grader til stormgjæring begynner å avta (typisk etter 3-5 dager). Øk deretter til 20 grader og hold resten av gjæringsperioden (totalt 14 dager).

Gjæralternativer: WLP004, WLP007, WLP013, WLP051, Danstar Nottingham, Safale S-04
