Shut up about Barclay Perkins

Another of my little videos. In this one, I discuss my recipe for 1940 Drybrough P 60/. It's one I recently published on the blog.  

As you can see, we’re still stuck on 60/-. Why? Don’t ask me. I’ve started so I’ll finish. Isn’t that reason enough? This looks very much li...

Continuing my look at modern Shilling Ales, here’s a 60/- recipe from the start of WW II. Being brewed early on in the conflict, the gravity...

Finally, an Eighty Shilling that really is related to modern Scottish Export. Though it wasn’t actually called 80/- by the brewery. It was, ...

Yet another Eighty Shilling which isn’t what we now think of the style. But of the older type of Scottish beer that I call Shilling Ales. Th...

 Another new video. This time looking at a 60/- recipe.  

Another Eighty Shilling that isn’t like the modern version. Instead, it’s of the Shilling Ales type. That is, sort of a bit like an English ...

 I explain the recipe of 1913 William Younger 80/-. Yum. All those grits!  

If you’ve looked at my YouTube video on Sixty Shilling, you’ll know that this beer has no relationship with the modern type. This being a Sh...

Continuing with a little series of Scottish beers, here’s an interwar 70/-. It’s a great example because the gravity of 1048º is typical for...

To follow on from my recent video about Scottish 60/-, I thought I'd publish a recipe for a post-war version. Even better than that, it...

Isn’t this exciting? A Yorkshire IPA. And one which might even satisfy a style nazi of today. With an OG of 1064º, it’s a full-strength Pale...

Strongest of Cannon’s range was KKK. Not that it’s all that strong by 19th-century standards. My guess is that this was considered an Old Al...

Now here’s a surprise: Fremlin didn’t parti-gyle their Porter and Stout. Which, certainly by this late in the 19th century, is what I would ...
