This beer has a more typical gravity for a Light Pale Ale. Resulting in a beer of a little under 5% ABV. A nice, light warm-weather drink. Perfect for the British climate.
The only real difference from the recipe of H, is that there’s one more type of sugar. Dextro-maltose. Which, given its limited fermentability, implies they wanted to add body.
The hopping rate of 7.5 lbs per quarter (336 lbs) of malt is the same as for H. On the low end for a 19th-century Pale Ale. But this is a Light Pale Ale. It’s not supposed to attack your tongue. Loads of hops again. Five copper hops and four dry hops. All English, from the 1896 and 1897 harvests.
Not a beer for ageing.
