English Oatmeal Brown Ale

English Oatmeal Brown Ale

Mild • All Grain • 6 gal

English Oatmeal Brown Ale is a sweet dark-ale with a long lasting thick head. It has a very mild roasted flavor and low bitterness. This is an awsome brew when you are looking for a nightcap on a cold winter night.

  • Wyeast 1187 Ringwood Ale™

    Wyeast 1187 Ringwood Ale™

    Notorious Yeast of European origin with unique fermentation and flavor charateristics. Distinct fruit ester and high flocculation provide a malty complex profile, which clears well. Thorough diacetyl rest is recommended after fermentation is complete.

Notes

Single infusion mash at 157 degrees F for 90 minutes. Add brown sugar at the begining of the boil. Cool to 68 degrees F and pitch yeast. Five days in primary fermentor and one nine days in secondary. I don't worry too much about the beer falling bright in the secondary. It's a dark brew, so, I tend to let it clear up in the bottle.
