Better British Bitter

This ale is my best bitter using a combination of Traditional English and West Coast Hops.  ABV levels are at the high end for this style, ~5%.  This ale is still in primary, so I have yet to taste it, however this grain bill has proven it's self time and time again to have a great body and mouth taste.


Grain Bill
8 lb Marris Otter
0.5 lb Acidulated Malt
0.5 lb Biscuit
0.5 lb Cara-pils

Hop schedule
60min - 0.5 oz Target (8% alpha)
60min - 0.5 oz Kent Golding's (7%alpha)
10min - 0.5 oz First Gold

Yeast
Nottingham blend (most any British Ale Yeast will be fine)
