Cody’s ESB.

Cody McKendrick

Project Description

esbLast year we did a shop ESB competition, and then the winning recipe was picked (Mike Pezely and Kyle Callister came down and judged it) and then brewed at a higher strength to go into a High West barrel. This was the recipe that ultimately won and become the barrel beer. As for the particulars, I used distilled water and a pack of the Burton Water Salts I had laying around. I grew up the 1318 in a 1.0 liter starter, pitched at 63*, and fermented at 68* for three weeks prior to cold crashing and kegging.
