Ingredients (Extract5 gal)

  • .5 lbs Crystal 60; Great Western

    Crystal 60; Great Western

    Similar to C40 but with a more extensive roasting to a target color of 60° ASBC. Has a more pronounced caramel flavor to coincide with the color.

  • .5 lbs Maris Otter; Crisp

    Maris Otter; Crisp

    An English thoroughbred and a favored choice of malt for many brewers. Simpsons' Maris Otter has a rich and nutty flavor and despite its small, berry size has a strong husk. This malt delivers predictable brewhouse performance with modest, yet consistent extracts. Brewers can expect good runoffs with clear wort.

  • 7 lbs Liquid Light Extract

    Liquid Light Extract

    A brewer can create any beer style with this extract when used as a base in conjunction with colored malts and selected hops. Contains no colored malts or hops.

After removing from the frige for a week (38 deg. F), this dog was very clear! Ran the calcs and it came out to 6.5% Alc by volume. The color actually was lighter than the recipe calculated, very very close to the Sam Adams Boston Lager color. Hopefully it will taste as good.

OK, definitely not a Sam Adam's Lager. This turned out more like a Coors Amber Lager, not bad, Amber in color, rich taste, very easy to drink, good a hot sumer day. All in all I am not dissapointed, the beer is still within my drinkability criteria.
