Mild Ale Number 5

Bill Wible - Philadelphia, PA

I won first place in Brown Ales with this recipe more than once. Use Maris Otter malt where it says Englsh 2 row. This is probably the best recipe I ever made.

    Wyeast 1882-PC Thames Valley Ale II

    This strain was originally sourced from a now defunct brewery on the banks of the river Thames outside of Oxford, England. Thames Valley II produces crisp, dry beers with a rich malt profile and moderate stone fruit esters. This attenuative strain is also highly flocculent resulting in bright beers not requiring filtration. A thorough diacetyl rest is recommended after fermentation is complete.
