Shut up about Barclay Perkins - Let's Brew - 1964 Eldridge Pope Double Stout
Visit the Shut up about Barclay Perkins site
Yet another Eldridge Pope recipe that I’ve had to fiddle with. Another reason to thank the Whitbread Gravity Book.
There’s an entry from 1959 for something called Double Sweet Stout. The OG is a few points higher than in the brewing record, but what swung it for me was the FG. Which was also several points higher. That says one thing to me: lactose at racking time. Which is what I’ve assumed.
Elsewhere in the grist, there’s chocolate and crystal malt, plus the usual sugar and malt extract. You may have noticed that the basic recipes for all a brewery’s beers are usually pretty similar. It makes sense not to have too many different ingredients. And when you’re parti-gyling, there’s not much choice.
The recipe is an interesting mixture of bitterness and lactose sweetness. Looks like a winner to me.
