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.

Discussion
A great hoppy session beer

This is a great session beer. Not too strong and with a wonderful challenger character. I actually used the wyeast 1469 strain which I believe is the Timothy Taylor Landlord strain. It doesn't taste like it is 49 ibus. To me it is more like about 35 and is very well balanced.
