Now we’re done with one set of Younger’s Ales, it’s time to start on another one: the X’s.
If the Shilling Ales are Milds and the X Ales are Milds, what the hell is the difference between them? You tell me. I can’t work it out. The Shilling Ales seem to be less well attenuated, but that’s about it. Perhaps the X Ales were draught and the Shilling Ales bottled.
This X is a little lower in gravity than its London equivalent. At least one from a large brewery. It’s still over 5% ABV, mind.
Another very simple grist from Younger. Just base malt and, er, that’s it. Oh, and “5 flgs pat”. Which is probably patent malt. But what the hell is a flg? If that indeed is what it says. I’m not totally sure. Getting back to the base malt, there are two types, one from the Middle East.
In contrast, there were many different types of hops. American from the 1884 harvest, Californian from 1884, Württemberg from 1884, Kent from 1884 and 1885 as copper hops. Loads of dry hops, too: American from 1884 and 1885, Californian from 1884, Württemberg from 1884 and 1885, EK from 1884.
