My own recipe, based on the Best Bitter by the now defunct Granite Brewery in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

I think the recipe is quite faithful, could perhaps use a bit more hops, but I ran into various equipment/fermentation problems that I think led to a batch not as much like the Granite BB as I was aiming for, but the recipe definitely has potential.

Quite flavourful, but could use a little bit more hops.
