I was looling through the beerstyle guidelines and I came across "Old Ale". I read more about it, and it appears to be a style that I really enjoy, darker ale, winter warmer type of beers. So I decided to brew one up in a few days. I just bottled a nottinham fermented ale today and washed up a huge jar of nottinham to pitch into this beer in a few days. I still have time to adjust the recipe as I won't grind grain for a few days just prior to brewing.
6 gallon batch
15.00 lb Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 86.96 %
1.00 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L (60.0 SRM) Grain 5.80 %

0.25 lb Chocolate Malt (350.0 SRM) Grain 1.45 %
1.00 oz Summit [18.00 %] (60 min) Hops 44.4 IBU
0.50 oz Summit [18.00 %] (5 min) Hops 4.4 IBU
0.50 oz Summit [18.00 %] (1 min) Hops 1.0 IBU

I plan on mashing this at 153 for an hour, collecting a ton of runnings and boiling for a long time to get down to 6 gallons.
