Rapture Ale

Well, Reverend Camping said the Rapture was coming on May 21st, basically meaning the end of the world, figured I'd brew an English Ale, aptly named Rapture Ale. Now, since I didn't plan on being around to drink it (figuring the world would have ended already), but the end of the world never came. Supposedly it's been postponed until October 21st.

This is a kit from Northen Brewer, called the Innkeeper, but I had to rename it, The Innkeeper is not a name for a beer.

Spicy, herbal, and English biscuits. Flashes of clean citrus and chewy minerals blend into a complex finish that is refreshingly bitter and remarkably dry.

0.25 lbs Simpsons Extra Dark Crystal
0.25 lbs Belgian Biscuit Malt
3.15 lbs Pilsen Malt Syrup
1 lb Pilsen DME
1 lb corn sugar
1 oz Fuggle (60 min)
1 oz Kent Goldings (45 min)
1 oz Styrian Goldings (5 min)
WYEAST 1945 NB NEOBRITANNIA

Cracked one of these open tonight, actually I plan on having a few more too lol..Exactly as the description stated....biscuits and citrus, slight bready aroma given off by the hops. Its lighter than its appearance and surprisingly bright although the pics below look dark but that's only the lighting,  I really like this one. I used the Wyeast 1945 Neobrittania, 2 weeks primary and 2 weeks conditioning in bottles and it's really coming around. Although I'm brewing an ESB and a Cream Ale next, I'm gonna be brewing this again as well, seems to be the perfect summer beer.
