Black Sheep Clone
Extra Special/Strong Bitter (English Pale Ale) • Partial Mash • 5 gal
Accidently stumbled on this beer while travelling in England. Couldn't find it over here, and went crazy until I could copy it. Just malty enough without being sweet, just hoppy enough without being harsh, and with enough flavor to keep you going back for more. Holds its own when served with roast beef, pork or lamb.

An English thoroughbred and a favored choice of malt for many brewers. Simpsons' Maris Otter has a rich and nutty flavor and despite its small, berry size has a strong husk.

White Labs WLP005 British Ale

This yeast is a little more attenuative than WLP002. Like most English strains, this yeast produces malty beers. Excellent for all English style ales including bitter, pale ale, porter, and brown ale.
Notes
Since this is an extract with specialty grain recipe, you should soak the grains in 1.5 gallons of 149 degree water for 60 minutes and then rinse them off with 1.5 gallons of 160 degree water. Add the malt extract, mix completely, heat to boil and add hops per schedule. When done, cool, add to fermentor, add water to make 5.5 gallons, when temperature is 70 degrees pitch yeast.
