Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer • All Grain • 19.50 L
A standard speciality ale for a brewing session in Christmas, though I missed the timing. The use of spices and herbs is quite restrained, so the beer should be rather hoppy than spicy/herby.

This action is aided by the clumping of proteins in the boiling process. Irish moss settles to the bottom of the brew kettle with spent hops and hot break material at the end of the boil.
