This is the official collaborative recipe created in this thread: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/too-early-start-talking-about-11-11-11-a-180867/ The discussion about the recipe can be found here: official-11-11-11-old-ale-thread-hbt-anniversary-series Because there will be many variables from brewer to brewer, this will make for an awesome swap come next year. When brett is involved there are a lot of unknowns, so the final gravity is a bit of a shot in the dark. Another variable is the oaking. Some may wish to leave it out entirely. Also, the length of oaking, quantity, toast level, and whether it is French or American will all produce very different results. The key here is balance.
