Notes

Recipe was from HomeBrewer's Association and had some loose ends:

  • Type of wheat malt unspecified, I choose German.
  • 105L crystal malt replaced with 90L crystal malt.
  • Brown sugar should be dark brown sugar.
  • No dry hop duration specified, I choose one week.
  • Exact style unclear: HBA says: This beer recipe style lies somewhere in between an American Strong Ale and “Irresponsible.”
  • Wyeast1968 also ok.
