Nice Cream

Nice Cream

Cream Ale • Partial Mash • 5 gal

Rev13

This recipe won a 3rd Place Award/Medal at the Western Washington State Fair (Puyallup Fair) in 2008. The corn addition is about 3-8% higher than recommended; also out of style is the bitterness. This is extremely drinkable, especially during the summer - I can't keep the kegs full! I am going to enter it into the specialty/experimental category this year as a Classic American/Pre-Prohibition Cream Ale
