Notes

This is a complete guess as to what the recipe might be for Obama's White House Honey Ale that is getting so much press lately.

DO NOT BREW THIS VERSION!!!!

Now that the White House released the recipe, this one has been renamed to (original guess). The real recipe is here, named White House Honey Ale (Official Recipe).
