Notes

As per information directly from a Schoenling employee in the 1990's, the original recipe had an O.G. of 13.3, IBU of 20.5 and ABV 5.56%. Schoenling only used 6 row barley and flaked corn (at one time used corn syrup). Original Schoenling recipe used Hallertau, Saaz and Cluster hops. Schoenling used a bottom fermenting lager yeast but it was fermented at warmer temps like a California Common beer and then lagered for 6 weeks. This beer definitely has the aroma of Saaz hops.

Fyi: this recipe is very different from the actual Little Kings recipe.
