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.

Brew Summary

Finished up brewing about one PM today. I think I will be calling this my "Rainy Day ESB" because it poured down rain right as I finished scum skimming and the wort started to boil. OG was 1.058, I might have boiled off a bit more than I wanted to. Lots of hop flavor in the hydrometer sample. I chilled to about 66F, and will ferment at that temperature as well. Updates to follow.
