Shut up about Barclay Perkins - Let's Brew - 1944 Adnams Double Stout
Visit the Shut up about Barclay Perkins site
Yet another 1944 recipe. Not sure why I keep posting these, other than it's 75 years ago. And I'm writing a book about brewing in WW II.
The war seems to have barely brushed Adnams beers. A slight fall in gravity and hopping rate, but barely noticeable compared to the changes in London beers. That’s the advantage of kicking off the war with an unusually weak range.
After a couple of years of war, Adnams was down to just three beers: Bitter, Mild and Stout. That’s a pretty thin range, even for a brewery out in the sticks.
The only difference to the 1939 grist is the addition of flaked barley, which replaces some of the base malt and No. 3 invert. The grist remains quite rich, with three different coloured malts: amber, crystal and chocolate. Adnams were early adaptors of chocolate malt, substituting it for black malt in 1914.
There were two types of hops, both English, from the 1942 and 1943 harvests.
