LiVERPOOL BEER WEEK - CHAPTER COLLAB BREW

7/6/2018

It was a day of hard work and headbands at Chapter Brewing for Collective member Andy, who is no stranger to brewing himself having been a member of Liverpool's Homebrewing Club for some time.

Since Chapter burst onto the Liverpool Scene in 2016, they have become a firm favourite for the Collective.  Their beers have been named taking inspiration from various pieces of literature and have been growing in stature over the course of the two years.  It was logical to brew with them for the forthcoming Liverpool Beer Week.

The water was treated, the malt weighed out and the brewing began.  The common theme as with the other collaboration brews to date was a rising heat in the brewhouse; carrying sacks of malted barley and tipping to mash in was tough and overseen by head brewer Noah Torn.

The arrangement of a tangle of hoses saw the transfer of the wort over to the kettle, whilst a small rest and a restorative beer was taken.  Once the kettle came up to temperature and a rolling boil, hop additions were in order before the 60 minute boil gave way to another transfer, this time into the fermentation vessel.

The next stage was kettle souring and a slightly different technique needed to make an acidic sour beer.  Late additions of adjunct ingredients mean we have now got something very different and very special ready for Liverpool Beer Week.

The final result will be an immensely refreshing and summery Grapefruit and Watercress Sour ale...
