As Yooper says, this is a great everyday drinker. My first batch of this has been on tap about 2 weeks and is excellent. This will definitely enter the rotation! Thanks for the great recipe!

Just made this yesterday as my 1st AG batch. Looking forward to tasting this.

O.G - 1.060

I used Safale US-05, but otherwise stuck to the recipe.

I was at my friend Mike's funeral yesterday. His daughter (who I haven't seen since she left for college about 3 years ago) told me that her dad was always talking about my Fat Sam beer. He loved it, more than any other beer. He had told me that before, but I didn't realize that he actually went around telling others about how much he enjoyed this particular brew.

Today I'm brewing a batch, so I decided to make it Fat Sam as a tribute to Mike.

Mike always brought a ton of crappies to our annual Memorial Day fish fry, so the plan is to drink this at the Memorial Day get-together and lift our glasses to Mike.

Just brewed this yesterday as my first all grain brew and my first brew that wasn't a kit. So what should I use and how much for sugar when it's time to bottle? I made the 5 gallon batch.

I use .75- 1 ounce priming sugar per gallon, so usually 4-5 ounces (by weight) of corn sugar.
