To get you started here is my recipe for Timothy Taylors Landlord. It packs a good hop flavour punch and the aroma of styrian goldings is to die for. Its a tad over the top for an ESB……
All Grain:
20L, OG 1.045, IBU 35
3.75 kg Pale Malt, Maris Otter (5.9 EBC) Grain 92.59 %
0.30 kg Munich I (Weyermann) (14.0 EBC) Grain 7.41 %
45.00 gm Fuggles [4.40 %] (60 min) Hops 25.2 IBU
30.00 gm Goldings, East Kent [4.50 %] (20 min) Hops 10.4 IBU
30.00 gm Styrian Goldings [4.70 %] (20 min) (Aroma Hop-Steep) Hops –
0.50 items Whirlfloc Tablet (Boil 15.0 min) Misc
1 Pkgs TTL (Wyeast #1469) [Starter 2000 ml] Yeast-Ale
You wont be able to get the 1469 yeast so sub it with another fruity english yeast such as 1187 or 1968. I mashed this at 65 to get a dry finish but you could up the malt backbone a touch by mashing at 66/67.
