My wife and I were in NE the other week and she feel in love with this beer. I was wandering if anyone had a extract clone or a recipe that could get me in the ballpark?

Thanks

The head brewer is really cool and they support homebrewers. You might be able to get the recipe from them but definitely a list of the malts and hops.

This is what I got from Jim at Empyrean:
Nothing too fancy in the recipe – grain and hops are something like this:
Pale 2-row = 70%
Marris Otter = 20%
Carastan = 10%
Chocolate = 3% (of total grain for color and flavor)
Original Gravity is 13.5 plato
Hops are Willamette for flavor and aroma at 13 IBU’s
Yeast – just about any American Ale or London Ale variety will get you close, we’re fans of Fullers, Chico and Ringwood.

This is what I used for 5 gal:
7# 2-row
2# MO
1# Carastan
4oz Chocolate
1oz Willamette @45
.5oz Willamette @5
Wyeast 1187

This was my first AG batch, and needles to say I didn't keep very good notes. I haven't made it again, but if I did I would move the first hop addition to later in the boil say to the 25 min mark and up the amount.
It wasn't bad just a bit off from Third Stone.

I found this thread via search....because I'm not a total noob
LOL!

I decided to brew this one as my first all grain beer. I will be able to taste it side by side with the Third Stone, since I live in Lincoln. Hope I don't screw it up too awful bad....

To update, it's good. Slightly on the mellow side of the actual thing, so maybe use a bit more MO and slightly less US 2row.

Other than that, it's really close. If you can't have them side by side, it will be just like you remember....
