Muntons Barley Wine | February 6th 2005 | |
Too easyOne of my first attempts to brew. Used kit with 1k of castor sugar. Father-in-law has brewed it for 50+ years, adamit about using regular sugar. Finished off at 1000 within two weeks & bottled. Pack states 18-20c, but bubbled along happily at 22-24c. Very good head, rich flavor, will improve with age. Noticable difference with priming, did some with drops & some with sugar. Drops = smoothier, sugar = crisper. Well worth the effort either way. Rich flavor, also additional recipe variations. |
