Pale Ale + Pale Ale

Could I use a Coopers Pale Ale/Real Ale and a Malt Shovel Pale Ale in one 20-22L batch?

So not really a 2-can brew but more of a 1.5 can brew!

Would mixing 2 different pale ales cause any problems?

Should be fine, give it a whirl and let us know how it goes.

Cheers,
Greg

I think you would probably have the same if not better results than others ive heard from on here that are doing two can brews, being the fact that the malt shovel is a 11-12 litre can, in saying this ive never done it

Bottled this last night with a FG of 1011..

Smelt ok.. Not bad, not fantastic. What I would call "inoffensive"

Just an update

The Real Pale Ale - ie Coopers Pale + Coopers Real Ale is still ordinary
