hello every one and I hope everyone had a very nice Holiday week! I did
So I was driving from Central California to Northern California yesterday and I was listening to Drew..Dennys good friend. Youtube podcast... Drew mentioned a Mild with rye malt...
so i got inspiredI didnt use it here ..maybe I should?so when i got to my destination I looked up Bitritish Milds... and I though.. hmm let me try to formualte this..
So here goes: feel free to chew me up and spit me out.. ha.. maybe ill give you heartburn.... My reason for using 2 base malts: I made 2 hot teas with both malts recently; ea. has their own wonderful taste... BUT mixed together..WOW!!!!!!
Marris Otter: bready, buiscuity, brown color
Golden promise: Sweet, malty, light colored
And their UK/ Irish.. so i think works here...
