Brewing it
Make up to 18 litres rather than the usual 23, ferment at 18-20°C until the bubbling stops, then bottle or barrel with a little priming sugar and give it two weeks in a cool place to clear. Full steps are on our Woodforde's instructions page.
One for fans of rich, fruity strong ales and winter sipping. See the full Woodforde's kit range, including Wherry and Nelson's Revenge.
