I have a few variations from Ohio Dad's Recipe, but it's pretty close (I used two different pale malts because I had a few pounds of each laying around that I wanted to use up)
Looks like a good recipe of one of my favorite beers from when I used to live in Seattle area. I'm buying the grains today. Cheers all.

I'm excited to brew this next week! If only I could find a place in town that had Mac and Jack's on tap...

I haven't seen it in awhile. Last place I saw it was Old Town Pizza, but it wasn't there last I checked.

Salty's on Marine Drive used to have it on tap. Didn't the last time I was in town. I'll be in PDX in Feb, let me know where I can find it if it's still on tap. Otherwise i'll be a Rogue in Pearl and McMenamins Edgefield.

Old Town Pizza (MLK) still has it. I went and did some "research" just for reference.

Brew day tomorrow, so we'll hope for the best!

This stuff is delicious! It turned out slightly thinner than normal Mac and Jack's but I can probably attribute that to a few errors during the brew process.

Awesome! Glad the recipe turned out for you.. I wonder if you could add some oats or something for more body?

Sorry, wasn't trying to be a smart ass but I was amazed you would have a hard time finding this in tap in Portland.. You can't go to any bar in Eastern Washington without MAc and Jacks on tap.. I figured in Portland it was a no-brainer.. Probably because there is more competition for tap space in Portland than in E. Washington... It sure is a fantastic beer though.. If you can find it in Nitro pour it's a little piece of heaven....
