Notes

This recipe is perfect for beginners and advanced brewers alike.

For beginners, it gives a great flavour profile of the Simcoe hop, and also how a yeast strain, such as M36, can supplement the flavours you are trying to reach!

For advanced brewers, it can really show how complex something so simple can be. I made the recipe last summer, and it was one of my favourite beers of the year!

The flavour profile from Simcoe, which to me, is passionfruit/berry, is therefore supplemented by the peach flavour I get from M36. You'll find the beer very quenching in the Aussie Summer Heat!
