QuantityIngredient
2cansGeordie Extra Strong ale
1cupDark brown sugar
2cupsCorn sugar
½poundsCrystal malt
½cupMaltodextrin
½teaspoonIrish moss
1ounceWillamette leaf hops

Directions

Bring grain to boil in 1 gallon water; remove grain when water starts to boil. Add another ½ gallon of water and bring to boil again. Add ex- tract and sugars, boil for 15 minutes. Add Irish moss and hops for last 5 minutes of boil. Put it in fermenter with enough water to make 5 gallons. Add ale yeast and wait. The beer is a brown ale with sweetness from the sugars and crystal malt; not much hop flavor. The maltodextrin contributes a strange slightly syrupy quality (I think)---I might leave it out next time. Anyway, I thought it was a nice, drinkable brown ale.
