Maris Otter Pale
Maris Otter Pale
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. This malt delivers predictable brewhouse performance with modest, yet consistent extracts. Brewers can expect good runoffs with clear wort.

Very smooth brew session for this one. Hit the gravity on the nose and the Hopback worked great. Pitched a very active 3 liter starter and had activity within 2 hours. It's currently firing brown blobs out the blow off tube. #47

This one turned out pretty good. It's another style I don't know very well though and I have a hard time evaluating it. There are no problems or flaws that I can detect, but there is still something unremarkable about the brew. Perhaps this is how English IPAs are supposed to taste, but it just doesn't jump with flavor like I thought it would. That's not to say it isn't good, though. The malt profile is really nice, with some bready, biscuity, toasty flavors. And the hops seem to be balanced well with some spicy and floral characters. There's also an underlying malty sweetness and another sweetness that I think is coming from the hops. This flavor is similar to black licorice. It's subtle, but it's there. The bitterness is much less than what I would have expected or wanted. Not a bad beer, but nothing amazing either. It will be interesting to see how it matures after some time in the keg.
