Let's Brew Wednesday - 1910 Barclay Perkins KKK

The stronger of Barclay Perkins two Stock Ales is similar to KK, but not exactly the same. It was also brewed in rather large volumes for a strong beer. This brew was, for example, 552 barrels.

The biggest difference is in the base malt. Which is all pale malt, rather than a mix of pale and SA malt found in KK. Other than that, the recipes are pretty much identical. Which makes you wonder why they didn’t parti-gyle the two of them together. Perhaps the volumes were too large for it to be necessary.

Three types of hops again, Two East Kent, both from the 1909 harvest. And Hallertau from 1908, cold stored.
