Brewed this one 6/4/04.Want to develop complex barleywine/spiced beer with subtle nuances.Turbinado sugar from health food store was used not lt.br. sugar.only listed lbs because it was closest.turbinadois close to brown sugar with less molasses.BTW My extract eff. was lowest ever. These numberswill be higher for most brewers.
