Codename : Westfort Export Stouthorpe In my ongoing attempts to brew more stouts, and try more stout styles, I have arrived on a foreign extra stout. In the older British tradition it was brewed a little stronger for the export market, and tended to be a little hoppier.

Codename : Westfort Pig Dog IPA Doing an English IPA has been in the pipeline for a while now, this will will be dry hopped. The clever name is an hommage to Monty Python’s “Holy Grail”, the exchange between the French sentry and King Arthur. 🇫🇷💨🏴 Recipe inspiration : https://abthorpe.org/tag/ipa/ Ingredients 2 lbs Maris Otter malt (3.8L) 2.5 oz Rye malt...
Codename : Westfort Milk Stouthorpe As I have covered off most of the stout styles I enjoy drinking, it was time to try a milk stout, also known as a sweet stout. Introducing some lactose sugar sweetens the profile of the stout, while not contributing to the fermentable sugars.

Codename : Westfort Heart of Oak Alethorpe While researching recipe ideas, I discovered the notion of adding oak chips to a beer after it has completed the first week of fermentation. The title is loosely inspired by the song Heart of Oak, an anthem used by many Commonwealth navies.

Codename : Westfort Cocoa Oatmeal Stouthorpe This is a do over on my first chocolate oatmeal stout. Back then I made rookie mistakes, I am still making them.

Codename : Westfort Winter Warmer For Fathers’s Day this year, I got Home Brew Beer by Greg Hughes from my family. I adapted this Brown Ale from his recipe. While the ale recipe is anticipated to be 5.8% ABV, the addition of 1 oz of spiced vodka will bump it up to an estimated 7% ABV.

Codename : Westfort Old Man Winter Alethorpe I never knew that Old Ale existed as a standard until I was randomly adjusting recipes, trying to create a strong British ale. It fits in with what many might consider a Winter Beer. The title loosely ripped off from the classic song by Neil Young, Old Man.

Codename : Ukrainian Imperial Stouthorpe I have slowly been building up to an Imperial Stout since I started home brewing.
