Shut up about Barclay Perkins - Let’s Brew Wednesday - 1919 Tetley F
Visit the Shut up about Barclay Perkins site
A final Mild recipe for Mild Month. OK, it’s one day into June, but I couldn’t resist.
Especially as it’s another Tetley recipe. F, which I’m pretty sure stands for Family Ale. A bottled beer I remember from my time living in Leeds. In those days it looked very much like a bottled version of their Mild.
This one is an, er, interesting recipe. With grits making up 25% of the fermentables. Plus a tiny little bit of chocolate malt. And South American sugar. “Peru” is how it’s described. That’s another 18% of the grist. Making it pretty low on malt. Sure it tastes lovely, mind. It is a Tetley beer, after all.
When this was brewed, 30th October 1919, it would have counted as a 5d beer:
