Shut up about Barclay Perkins - Let's Brew Wednesday - 1952 Mackeson Stout
Visit the Shut up about Barclay Perkins site
I'm not sure if I'm a couple of days early or very late with the Let's Brew Wedenesday. Let's be positive. A couple of days early.
General info: Mackesons Sweet stout 16 years on from the last one. Not a ton has really changed with the percentages in the grist. About the same about of lactose added back in the primings. About the same amounts of sugars. Where you really see the biggest difference is in the size of the beer. We've dropped nearly 9 gravity points and about 1% in alcohol. The color comes down a good ways also. The hopping levels stay pretty much the same so the BU of this beer goes up a bit. A very neat side-by-side comparison of what was Mackeson stout.

Tasting Notes: Very very much similar to the 1936 version just toned down a bit more. The 'lighter' product makes it even smoother and more drinkable. Yes, kinda lame to do two of the same recipes nearly back to back. However, even with near identical grist, the drop in gravity and percents across the board make this unto its own. I think its even better than the ’36 version.
