Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
5poundsKlages lager malt
4poundsPale Ale malt
1poundsCrystal malt (40 or 60 deg
Lovibond)
½teaspoonIrish moss
ounceNorthern Brewer (alpha 8.0)
ounceHallertauer (alpha 4.1)
MeV High Temp Lager liquid
Yeast

Directions

Mash grains for 25 minutes at 125 degrees and 90 minutes at 150 degrees.

Mash-out for 10 minutes at 168 degrees. Sparge. Bring to boil and add Northern Brewer hops. Boil 60 minutes. At last minute toss in Hallertauer. Cool. Pitch yeast. Judges said it was perhaps a tad thin compared to Anchor but otherwise OK and it took 2nd out of 30 amber beers at the Hudson Valley competition last March. With MeV kaput, I recommend using a sturdy lager yeast or even an ale yeast for this one.
