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
IBUs are wrong

Beer Tools can't accurately determine IBUs that high. There's only so much that can go into solution. Very likely the IBUs are about 100.
