The last of my Bitter(?) Ale.
About 80% Golden Promise, 20% Shepheards Delight, A heap of Cluster for bittering, then Styrian Golding and Cluster through the boil and also for dry hopping. Used Kveik yeast slurry from a previous beer. Cloudy, unfiltered or cold-crashed.
This was a dry crisp, almost pucking from the bitterness, not overly bitter like pine resin or tastebud destroying IPA, just a good strong bitterness like a extra powerful UK or Aussie ale. Some lemon/citrus from the kveik, some woody ashyness as well. Sweetness and bready malt, a dry cola taste? Very good, very interesting and complex.
