"I am trying to remember that beer....one of the North Welly brewers made a clone a few years back... I agree on the Marris Otter. I love the grain, and often use it in a SMASH recipe. The only other base grain I like more is Golden Promise."

"Last minute change...I swapped the Gladfield American Malt for Marris Otter. It was actually an accident, I was just grabbing my base grain, and by default that tends to be MO. Oh well. Maybe it will be  pleasant surprise :)"

"Haha JT! These days I try to make most of my beers 4 to 5%abv. The S05 batch is bubbling away happily. However, the Bry-97 seems to be a real slow poke. We will see how it turns out in the end. It will be interesting to compare the flavours. I…"

"Correction... Yeast: 1/2 batch llamand Bry-97 - American West Coast Other Half of the Batch US05 So I split the wort into two separate batches so I could do a side by side comparison of the Bry97 since I never used it before."

"Does the honey flavor actually come through? When I use honey, it seems to have a slightly harsh flavor to it, or no flavor since it is so fermentable. Perhaps I could add the honey later in the fermentation to get the flavor."

Michael replied to nzbrewer's discussion What are you brewing?
"I have been playing with S04 lately, as I like how it floculates nicely. However, I have found that it seems to squash my hops. Maybe it just tastes that way as it does not attenuate as well as s05 or Wy1056. In the future, I will likely do this…"
