Decided due to weather, and due to wanting to use this particular yeast, and wanting to make a beer, I would make a beer with Kveik yeast (WLP4045 Sigmunds Voss Kveik)

Rather than the usual beer people seem to be making with Kveik, usually lighter flavoured stuff to let the yeast character shine, I thought I would make a UK Best Bitter, a Timothy Taylor Landlord type beer, and use this yeast because its summer and it works well at high temps. Any Kveik yeast characteristics will be an interesting result.

Above is the recipe. 10lt beer, 30minute boil. It came out a bit low on bittering hops, but we shall see how that comes out. Timothy Taylor Landlord is usually pure Golden Promise, I thought I would try some Shepherds Delight malt for character, plus it sounded interesting (and the recipe started as a more pure Landlord clone with Wyeast 1469 West Yorkshire Ale yeast).

Its about 1.035-ish, so Its going to be maybe 3.0% – 3.5% depending how the yeast goes.

19/1/20 – Its fermenting now, Was going very strong a few hours after pitching.
Will post again probably on the weekend when its done fermenting.

EDIT: I checked it 21/1/20 and it was about 1.005.

EDIT: I checked it again 23/1/20 and it was about 1.005-ish, I moved it to secondary to get off the excess trub and also dropped in 5g each of Cluster and Styrian. Will probably bottle on 26th.
