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.

Fermentation went as planned. The wort fell clear and golden brown. JUst kegged. I will report on overall characteristics after two weeks in the refrigerator. 12/8/2008 I have been drinking this batch and it's very good. So good that I have to make another batch.

Out of 8 Pales presented at our brewer's guild meeting, this was the run away favorite. It is the beer that I brew for my own daily consumption.
Thanks!

-mikfir- Just wanted to say thanks for this recipe. I did an amped up version (7.4% ABV) using homegrown hops and Wyeast 1272. It's light and crisp, with that hint of rye, and a slight fruitiness (maybe due to the 1272?). Anyway, I'm really pleased with it and want to try it again, great work. Cheers.
