Siberian Tiger Baltic Porter | Beer Recipe
April is officially the first month of Autumn so time to start brewing something malty, dark and warming for the coming winter. April is also significant in the brewing calendar downunder as ANZAC day approaches and lest we forget the tributes to soldiers past and present with the popular 'raise a glass' campaign to toast the fallen and forgotten. With these themes in mind I set about rebrewing an old favourite - my Siberian Tiger & Tigress Baltic Porter and Oaked Baltic Porter from yesteryear! Going to go more true to style and in the spirit of the ANZAC combine craft Kiwi and Aussie malt to partner the lord admiral's English noble hops - they did sent the ANZACs into battle into some seriously questionable strategic decisions - lest we forget! And let's not forget somewhere close to the Baltics, at least closer than here - the Czech republic for some fine Saaz hops and a nobly made by the Belgians (Flanders Fields) Lager Yeast to close out the combination of armed ingredients!
