Inspired by the idea that Bread Pudding also often used leftover bread, we decided that this was the flavour profile we wanted to create. We replaced a fifth of the malt we would normally use with surplus bread from a local sandwich manufacturer – the equivalent to one slice of bread that would otherwise have been wasted in every bottle of beer. We used brandy-soaked currants infused with Bourbon vanilla and cinnamon along with lactose – the sugar from cows milk – to create a rich, sweet and velvety Amber Ale evocative of a traditional bread pudding.

Bottle from Waitrose in Northwood. A murky amber coloured pour with a healthy off white head on top. Sweet, malty, dark fruit, spice, caramel aroma and taste. It's quite drinkable but not getting the bread pudding in this one.

330ml bottle shared with Rich at his Welfare Pad. Final 3am bottle of the night! Thanks Rich! Hazy deep amber pour, white head. Aroma is sweet dark fruits, soft malts. Taste is smooth, sweet, malt-focussed.. hard to detect the brandy or bourbon vanilla, but that could be palate fatigue. Nice anyhow.
