I let this one set in secondary for a couple of weeks and after three weeks in the bottle it was very good.

  • Danstar Nottingham

    Danstar Nottingham

    The Nottingham strain was selected for its highly flocculant & relatively full attenuation properties. It produces low concentrations of fruity and estery aromas and has been described as neutral for ale yeast, allowing the full natural flavor of malt & hops to develop. The recommended fermentation temperature range of this strain is 14° to 21°C (57° to 70°F) with good tolerance to low fermentation temperatures (12°C/54°F) that allow this strain to be used in lager-style beer. With a relatively high alcohol tolerance, Nottingham is a great choice for creation of higher-alcohol specialty beers!

This recipe turned out to be a Guinness Extra Stout clone! The only thing is it is better than Guinness Extra Stout after four weeks in the bottle. No bragging, and no prejudice because I brewed it. It is actually that good. Try it you won't be sorry.

10 days in the bottle now, and this is very good. Nice creamy head, and we especially LOVE the aftertaste and know it will be even better in the coming weeks. We're going to make another batch of this soon, it won't last long!
