Specialty Beer • Partial Mash • 1 gal
I was trying to make a beer that would be good on a night in the rockies at -5. I slipped a bit on the batch and boil size. Could this even be brewed?

No, would have to find first if this is even possible, and second if it would be safe. This is estimating abv's above 40% which has a low flammability but we start getting into 50's and 60's and boiling and fermenting... Need more information from an expert first.
