Timothy Taylor Landlord Ingredients

Evening All,

I’m currently building my first AG set up and gathering all the bits and pieces together, etc. At the end of the day, however, it’s all about what I make with it and I’ve always promised myself ‘first runnings’ would be TTL.

Just to reaffirm this; I had to catch a train from Dewsbury station (not a million miles from TT brewery) a couple of weeks ago and ‘unfortunately missed my connection’ :whistle: meaning I was ‘forced to seek refuge’ in the wonderful West Riding Refreshment Rooms on the station platform. TTL is a regular in this establishment and this last pint was even better than I remembered and perhaps more hoppy as well ? If I could achieve anything close to this I would be a happy man.

Back to the recipe, Wheeler’s book calls for :

Goldings
&
Styrian Goldings

Using the sponsor's links I can find hops described as :

Goldings
East Kent Goldings
Bobek ( Styrian Goldings )
Celeia ( Styrian Goldings )
Savinjski ( Styrian Goldings )

So, appreciating the style I’m trying to produce would anyone be good enough to make a suggestion as to what I should go for ?

Thanks in advance.

Savinjski are the closest I have found to the Styrian's of a few years back when they were all called Styrian goldings. EK goldings are from that area alone. If labelled just goldings they could be from Kent, Sussex or Worcestershire. Not a lot of difference, some will say there is none but I tend to prefer EK. You also have Whitbread goldings but find them a bit more harsh.

For this first outing then I may just go for :

East Kent Goldings & Savinjski

Just need to get a friend of mine to come up with the Q Max cutters then I can start getting things together.

Thanks again.

I've only ever drunk a couple of bottles of TT.
However my GW brew is just coming on to drink ( brewed 18 October )
I did a comparison a few days ago and apart from sparkly clarity (which the bottled beer won by miles ) my brew tasted the same. and was very enjoyable
I used EKG and then 2 lots of Styrian ( Bobeck ) hops.
It came out at 4.2% and is destined to be a well liked brew.
Thoroughly recommend Graham Wheelers version, he got it spot on.

Thanks All,

This use of different hops really interests me; infinite combinations to play with.

Thanks again. :thumb:
