OIBF Collaboration Brew: For our collaborative brew with Buxton we decided to brew a Scotch Ale, but as our first collaboration with Buxton use plenty of US hops so it is more like an IPA. The base is what we thought would be appropriate for a Scotch Ale: some toasted and caramelized malts including Special B with gives raisiny flavor. To Enhance the dried fruit flavor we added figs and raisins in the hopback and picked hop varieties known for their dark fruit flavors.Bramling Cross and Pacific Gem in the kettle, Cascade and Mosaic in the hop back and Simcoe and Cascade as dryhops.

Bottle. Brown color. Nice aroma of fruity hop, toffee, grapefruit and ripe fruit. Taste is malty, with raisin, sweet ripe fruit, caramel and mildly piney toffee hop. Not bad.

0.33 l bottle from ’Mitra Van Bergen’, bottled in July 2016. Clear, deep red with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, beige head. Sweetish, malty, quite hoppy-fruity aroma of caramel, raisins, plums, strawberry, redcurrant, grapefruit and some pine. Sweetish-malty, already slightly bitter, a little resiny taste of caramel, strawberry, redcurrant, raisins, plums, grapefruit and pine, followed by a medium long, rather bitter, quite resiny finish. Medium body, slightly oily and a bit effervecent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Very interesting stuff! Nice balance between the sweet, heavy malts and the intense, fruity-resiny hops. Not cloyingly sweet at all, quite complex as well.
