Notes

Name
===
In "The Fellowship of the Ring," Pippin was looking forward to going by the Golden Perch at Stock, as it had the best beer in the Eastfarthing:
| "Or used to be: it's a long time since I tasted it."

I like the idea of a beer that is sort of unattainable. It's a rumor or a legend. A distant memory of something that was amazing.

Original Recipe Stats

ABV: 3.41%

FG: 1.013

Notes from Recipe Formulation
===

The original was a 7 gallon recipe. Am making a 2.75 gallon recipe so using a 0.4 multiplier against all the given quantities.
The yeast strain seems to have a very narrow ideal temperature range: 65° - 68° F
I'm debating whether to follow the recipe and carbonate to 1.5 volumes of CO2, or to follow the real ale rules and just use the residual CO2 from fermentation. I think I'll follow the recipe for the first stab.
I'm using an infusion of boiling to raise from protien to saccharyification rest because I don't want to spend a long time going through the other rests and potentially defeating the purpose of mashing at a high temp.

Recipe costs can be adjusted by changing the batch size. They won't be saved but will give you an idea of costs if your final yield was different.
