Mikeys English Bitter # 90
Special/Best/Premium Bitter • All Grain • 5 gal
Brewed 8/1/09, kegged 8/23/09. Taste is very easy to live with, kind of a bready malty low bitterness, excellent head, and my english friend gave it a great review.

Ingredients (All Grain, 5 gal)

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.

After bottled, it had a great flavor (nuty, grainy,toasty) and a sensational creamy,lacy head. I will make this one again. The kegged version needed a little more CO2 to match the bottlede version. Hops are just right.
