Mash madness


Tried a new beer last night while making dinner. Called "Golden Boy" it's made by one of my favourite breweries DEYA in collaboration with SMOD (St Mars of the Desert in Sheffield) and is a classic English Bitter style, although, it's not made in the traditional manner. They did a Bavarian decoction style mash (which involves removing and boiling half the mash water during the mash) which accentuates the malt character but used flowery English hops, the result is amazing, really tasty and rich with a delicate hop background, a real banger, if only best bitter was like this when I were a lad..
