Hey everyone,
so my friend told me about a Peruvian beer she tried and really liked.
She asked if I could try and brew it for her.
But I cant find a proper clone recipe :S

Cusqueña Malta
Has anyone heard of it?

Its dark, and has a chocolate taste. First thing i thought of was Young's Chocolate stout, but then I found this.

Cusqueña Malta:
• Single Peruvian beer with 100% pure malted barley.
• Type of beer: Lager, Pilsner type.
• Saaz hops, the finest in the world that gives body, aroma and pure taste of beer.
• Malta: 4 varieties: Meltcafe, Scarlett and toasted caramel malt.
• Process of Fermentation: Low Fermentation at low temperatures.
• Maturation Process: to -1.5 ° C
• Temperature to be served: -2 ° C to 2 ° C

I'm not going to lie, I'm still a noob when it comes to brewing partials or all grain.
I'm trying to track a bottle down to try it.
Anyone know anymore about the beer recipe like amounts or have any advice?
 
This sounds like any malta, very sweet with strong caramel and coffee flavors, low alcohol (<1%), which is usually obtained by fermenting at low temps than pasteurized.
I have attempted something like that (malzbier) which actually turned out very drinkable, once left to age for several month.
