Title: Capital Competition Idea
Post by: Dr Brown Ale on April 24, 2016, 03:10:53 AM

I had an idea for a competition.

Similar to the North County GEB Hops comp for the GEB Slovenian Hops

Let's do a Autumn Malt competition, that brings the Minch Malt supplied to BrewCon attendees to the fore.

Let's showcase this new malt, let's do a Malt Forward beer style comp, BJCP style judged.

Where do we host?

How different flavor wise is this hook head series to regular ale malt? Unless it's very unique/noticeable it won't make for a very interesting comp imo.

Have read that - I'm looking for the non marketing spiel version

Suck it and see with a smash, its only just been launched at Brewcon so nobody has tried it yet, post how you get on.

While not a single malt brew, looks like a brew could be on the market soon using the Hook head malt. Contemplating a no-sparge brew for that extra maltiness.
