Renner's CACA
Cream Ale • All Grain • 5 gal
This recipe was inspired by Jeff Renner of Home Brew Digest fame. If you decide to brew this beer, I would recommend referencing the original recipes for his Classic American Pilsner/Classic American Cream Ale. They can be found at www.hbd.org, #3669 & 3670. His description of the cereal mash is an important part of the recipe and, while not overly complicated, is somewhat involved.
