Shut up about Barclay Perkins - Let's Brew - 1947 Barclay Perkins XX

I told you it was watery Mild month. still time to squeeze in a couple more before June rolls around.
The late 1940s weren’t the best time to be a Mild drinker. At least if you wanted to get pissed. Watery was the key word.
Though there are some rather interesting recipes. Like XX, for example. Rather than being coloured up solely with sugar, there are two coloured malt: crystal and amber. The real grist was even more complicated than it appears in the recipe, as two-thirds of what is listed as mild malt was really SA malt.
The hops were a combination of Mid-Kent Fuggles from the 1945 and 1946 crop and Mid-Kent Tolhursts from 1944.
To account for the primings, which raised the effective OG by three points at racking time, I’ve added more No. 3 Invert sugar.
