  • .25 lbs Black Roasted Barley

    Imparts a dry, woodsy flavor if used in the boil. If beer is bottled with it, it gives it a smooth sweet, maple taste. Use in maple ales, pale ales, brown ales and porters.

  • White Labs WLP029 German Ale/Kölsch

    White Labs WLP029 German Ale/Kölsch

Notes

This is modeled after Canada's Granville Island Brewery's "Kitlano Maple Cream Ale". The Maple Syrup makes this silky ale too dark to be considered a "true" cream ale, but the end product should be phenomenal. If you are ever in B.C. (British Columbia. Sorry, no time-traveling) stop by the pub and order a taster round of whatever's on tap.
