This post spurred me on, as I'd read of the Broadside before and after seeing from Adnams that the bottle is 100% First Gold, I had to dive in. Anyway, cannot say it's anything other than a first pass, but working on it now fwiw. Thanks for the inspiration.
Just received 3 bottles Gales Prize Old Ale 2023. Keep us posted on the dregs culture, please
Will do! Poured the bottle dregs in 500cc of ~1010 gravity. On the stir plate most of the time, but I do take it off for a few hours here and there to also aerate the Yorkshire Dingo dregs. 48 hours later Dark Star looked like this:
Any luck with the Stingo dregs? I’ve tried several times without any success.
Do you have a link?
Post 5402 I would say.
Wish I could remember the name of it, but one of our best times in our tour of England was our stay in Warwick. I've a deep appreciation for W. European history so that alone made Warwick a bit of a diamond, but it was also our first experience at a quaint little English inn stay, with the 2-3 casks downstairs in what amounts to their living room. Man.....miss England. Plan on going again within the next couple of years, this time with our 23-year old son in tow. He's also deep into history.I'm in my living room.
My daughter lived there for over 12 years and I would visit two to three times a year. She's moved back just recently and I'm going to miss those tripsWish I could remember the name of it, but one of our best times in our tour of England was our stay in Warwick.

23. We visited England sometime around 2000. Math.
No luck with the Stingo. But the Dark Star looks to be successful, and I'll take that as a win!!!
Wow, that's phenomenal, eshea23. The Collegiate Church of St. Mary's, Beauchamp Chapel....not sure what they're called, but the above-ground, sculptured caskets of the Earls of Warwick and others. Odd side-story, but I am a trained Shakesearean actor and played Henry V among many other historical roles. That I was looking on Richard de Beauchamp, Earl of Warwick, who figured in Henry's campaign in France, well....I found it all so moving, as with so much else (the Warwick Castle itself - to stand at one end upon the original battlements built by William the Conqueror two years after his conquest, 1068), and all of what we visited in England.
I've only heard of one trained Shakespearian actor before, a professor who taught a course I took in college that covered one play each week (three Histories, three Tragedies and three Comedies. The course was called Shakespeare Rapid Reading, and met for three hours, once per week in the evening. I don't remember the professor, but I do remember the class. It was one of the most intense yet thoroughly enjoyable courses I ever took. The prof could make the characters leap off the page, or be as transfixing as Sir Laurence Olivier.
Wow, that's a wonderful story, Broothru! I did some work with the English Shakespeare Company when they came through doing Macbeth in Chicago. One of the things I found fascinating, was how reverential the Americans actors were of the text - a good thing, if done right - but to the point they treated it as high literature and not living, actionable text. Or, we do the other thing - all "method" and treat it only as grist for "subtext," James Dean does Hamlet, and ignore the clues Shakespeare gives in the rhythm and sound, even the spelling of words. They're like stage directions, but inside the text, not outside it.
The Fountain Inn
Wow. Yes.
Oh my god, you were at Jacob's Pillow?!!!
Excellent, thanks man!
No might about it, Cornish Gold is just a Munich made with Cornish barley. Malt Miller sell/sold it, which tells you something about how closely they've worked with Snozzell on their recipe....
Would Wyeast 1099 be an acceptable yeast, then? I seem to recall someone somewhere mentioning the Mangrove Jack Burton Union.
That's Goldings, and not Styrian, then?
anyhow, St Austell Tribute is also worth a brew!
