Where did the recipe come from.
How many times have you brewed it.

I take it you steep the grains.

I took this recipe from my local home brew shop, (minus 1 oz hops). The grains are steeped for an hour as the liquor gets up to 170F.This is my first batch of this, it tastes good!

Cheers.

Thank you for sharing the recipe.

BUT

I don't really think it is made clear any where but it "understood" or should be that only tried, tested and recommend recipes are entered into the database.

After three weeks this tastes good, with a malty profile and 5.5% abv. I will be making this recipe again and recommend it.

edit: looking back I don't think I let this beer age enough before it was gone, and can't make a great recommendation based upon the lack of data.
