tribute clone,

[sam51]

hi anyone know what hops and yeast is used for making a tribute clone ale,
many thanks sam.

Brew uk sell a recipe pack. Seems to be fuggles, williamette and styrian with MO and Munich malts. A choice of yeast is offered depending on 9f you go liquid or not.

There's one here by Malt Miller:

Not tried it but would like to some day as this is one of my favourite beers.

Morning all

last weekend i did my first ever AG: Tribute from Malt Miller

I felt like the brew went well and i followed the instructions perfectly.
This morning i took a quick hydrometer reading to see how it is progressing, so after 6 days its gone from 1042 to 1006 which is about right and been sat at around 20'c all week

However, when taking the obligitory taste of the trial jar the absolute overriding flavour was that of the Maris Otter. Very earthy and not really a hint of the citrus flavours its meant to have.

Now, is this due to me being impatient and i should leave it in the FV another week and then bottle. OR will the flavours change once they are bottled?

any advise appreciated

thanks

Although, looking at this thread it might be the Fuggles and not the MO

100g Crystal
45g Willamette 90m
25g Willamette 15m

A nice looking recipe but missing two of the hops that St Austell themselves say are in it.

Thinking of making a Tribute, there is a great video at the Brewery that malt Miller put together and they have put it seems quite a lot of work into developing an AG kit which II might give a try.
Any ideas on water profile, St Austell apparently use the water as is, which is quite soft I believe?

Hi I am about to keg mine today
Here is the water profile that I used :-
Ca 100
Mg 5
Na 50
Cl 75
SO4 225
HCO3 95
Tastes promising straight from the fermzilla

Thanks for that, I thought St Austell's water was much lower mineral content than that and I was going to try maybe <50ppm Calcium. It'll be a few weeks before I give this a go, let me know how it tastes once it has conditioned. Cheers

I have done a Tribute style with Celeia and Williamette in a whirlpool as well as some ordinary hopping schedule and that was very pleasant

 

[Galena]

The Malt Miller recipe and AG kit has
Willamette Whole Hops
Celeia (Styrian Goldings) Whole Hops
Target T90 Pellets
Aurora T90 Hop Pellet
Celeia – BarthHaas® Pure Hop Pellet
Fuggles T90 Pellets

Here is a screenshot of a post by @Rakey with a copy of the brew sheet if that helps

Water report for South West Water that supplies the St Austell area I believe.

FWIW, I did the St Austell brewery tour September last year. They have their own Borehole/well for brewing water which will likely have a higher mineral content than the tap supply. The tour guide also said they Burtonize the water and explained what he meant by that and why they do it. I would think that a water profile similar to that posted above by Mash Monster would be the one to aim for.

According to Georgina Young Brewing Director for St Austell Brewery and Hare Brewery, they adjust the water for all beers except for Tribute and Propper Job which uses the pure Cornish water. Of course coming from a well it may well have a higher mineral content.
She says this at 6:30 HERE

Have done that MM one with the closest ingredients I could get to hand here. I think the main substitutions I made were Celeia pellets as the whole ones I bought were pretty brown and Munich II for the special one they use. Fairly long brew day with the whirlpooling (with what I interpreted into timings from the video) but well worth it, was a lovely beer.
