How Do All ,
In the second of today`s beer recipies ,
I`m happy to be able to bring you a tasty IPA recipie from Victorian Haddingtonshire .
The Brewing Book of Wm J Clark @ B 6 / 1 / 1 ; Part of the Bellhaven collection ,
It`s self part of the internationally important Scottish Brewing Archive ;
Cared for by the good folks at The University of Glasgow Special Collections & Archives Dep`t
On Thurso St .
The original brewing of this beer used both home grown barley , and foreign imports ;
In the shape of Chevalier and " Danzic " Malts ; Using Tasmanian , Kents , East Kents ,
And a Squiggled collection of letters which I believe to be a shortened abbreviation of ,
One of the ` Classy ` hops to use in a Victorian Pale Ale / Bitter Beer : Tardif De Bourgogne ;
Another factor to mention is the `Clearing Gravity ` listed ,
Which as it ap[pears in the book , Should not be read as the Racking or , Final Gravity .
Though not specifically stated in the brewing book of Mr Clark , I believe that this beer would ,
Have had a Racking Hop Charge rate of between 6 and 8 Ounces Per OAK Barrel ( Std @ 36 Galls) ;
I`ve altered this rate in line with the Container Type available to most Home Brewers .
