She said it was never going to work, but that was the job she was given.<br />She described the wort as 'this horrible stinky stuff'. She likes a beer, but not necessarily what it is made from.<br />StuartPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13748038209546648459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-56577860390395451252016-10-16T01:43:33.337-07:002016-10-16T01:43:33.337-07:00I love Harvey's, they are my favourite brewery...I love Harvey's, they are my favourite brewery I think . Their beer are distinctively theirs, I assume from their rather interesting yeast.<br /><br />Jeff, Wibblers brewery also use Ridleys old yeast via Crouch Vale brewery, it was originally a whitbread strain like so many others - Shepherd Neame, St Austell are two more big well known breweries who use whitbread strains although they are probably rather different now to what they were originally like. <br /><br /> You can also buy it direct from wibblers as they sell to homebrewers, which is nice. An excellent yeastTomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756098759608472140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-251205125094863772016-10-14T08:01:34.702-07:002016-10-14T08:01:34.702-07:00Great post.

I was lucky enough to get a personal behind the scene tour of the now closed Ridley's Brewery in Essex nearly 20 years ago, guided by the brewer herself. It was an old tower brewery with old equipment, including copper lined fermenting squares. In the casting cellar there were marks on the walls indicating the level the nearby Chelmer River had risen in past floods. They also had used their yeast for multiple generations. Its official designation was B111, but they called it Bill. I collected it and passed it along to Dan McConnell, who owned the Yeast Culture Kit Co., who cleaned it up (it had some odd yeasts and bacteria), and then it passed to WhiteLabs, who sells it as Essex Ale Yeast WPL822. Its my favorite Yeast for English ales.Jeff Rennernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-36509710284708851832016-10-14T02:42:27.428-07:002016-10-14T02:42:27.428-07:00Great , great post :)
