There were a few pictures taken. If I can track them down I'll put them up. It was a busy day and the owner was occupied all day with the shop floor. I was lucky enough to recruit a couple of helpers and that did ease the burden of brewing in unfamliar territory.Bigster wrote:excellent - good luck and get someone to photograph you brewing and post it up
Norman, thanks again for the recipe. The wort looked gorgeous and tasted fabulous. If the finished beer is any near as good this one will make a lot of happy drinkers.

Quick update on the Bateman's: this beer is so good I brewed another batch today.
I racked last Saturday's brew Thursday night and siphoned off a bit as a taste test. This beer is delicious, thanks again Norman.
Since the first batch is destined to be served at a show I brewed this second one as a keeper. The brew shop owner and I will each take half of this brew and we will enjoy it.

Well, BigEd and I are both on another forum in the States, and this recipe, after BigEd posted it, has become quite the rage. At least 2 others have brewed it with another 3-4 saying it's on their list to be brewed soon. I myself am brewing my second batch of this to be taken to a party in January. Thanks again for posting the info Norman!!

Surely they're not for sharing


Orfy, I wouldn't worry about using invert sugar. Plain old white sucrose, table sugar in the US or castor sugar in the UK, will do the job in this recipe just fine. As for question #2 I'm not sure but I seem to remember somebody posting a link.Orfy wrote:2 questions. Invert sugar.
Is there something to use that is " Invert sugar"
Is there a list of these Almanac recipes in on place or do I have to search though the threads.
Cheers.

This looks a good challenge following two wheat beers. What kind of priming if any are we looking at for this one bottled?
