This American Brown Ale recipe is malty, sweet and rich in flavor and mouthfeel. 6.3 lbs of malt extract in combination with chocolate, munich, biscuit, victory and brown malts provide the malt structure. Northern Brewer hops provide the bittering balance. Cascade and Centenial hops provide the characteristic citrus punch. Commercial examples are Pete's Wicked Ale, and Great Lakes Cleveland Brown Ale.
The kit contains both dried and syrup malt extract, steeping grains, steeping sock, pellet hops, priming sugar, dry yeast, Whirlfloc tabelt, and instructions. It requires a 45 minute boil and makes 5 US gallons. If you prefer to use liquid yeast we recommend Wyeast #1056 or #1272. Anticipated SG 1.056, SRM 30, IBU 41, ABV 5.6.
