Shut up about Barclay Perkins - Let's Brew - 1887 Fullers Brown Stout
Visit the Shut up about Barclay Perkins site
Fullers other black beer was called BS in the brewhouse, which presumably stands for Brown Stout. That was, after all, the original name for Stout. A strong beer brewed from brown malt.
In terms of gravity, it’s pretty typical of a standard London Stout of the 1880s. A beer which would principally have been sold on draught. Though there would also have been a bottled version, unlike with Porter.
Confusingly, a price list from 1893 has two draught Stouts, Double Stout and Single Stout. Based on the price – 54 shillings and 44 shillings per barrel, respectively – Double Stout was this beer. My guess is that Single Stout was a blend of BS and Porter. To make things even more complicated, BS in its bottled form was called Extra Stout. And Single Stout simply Stout.
For a discussion of the recipe, consult the Porter recipe. As you’ve probably already guessed, the two were parti-gyled together. There is one difference: only the Stout was dry-hopped.
