This is a weird one. Something I’ve only seen Scottish brewers do before: parti-gyle a Stout with a Pale Ale.

How did they do that? By adding black malt and caramel to just one of the coppers. Hey presto! Pale Ale is now Stout. Though they did also end up with a Pale Ale that contained malted oats. I wonder if anyone ever noticed?

Compared to Shepherd Neame’s other recipes, this one looks insanely complicated. A massive three types of malt, plus sugar and caramel. I’ve increased the quantity of black because, as it was added in the copper, it would have added more colour than if it were mashed.
