I woke up this morning and noticed I had a one gallon carboy that wasn't being used. I said to myself it would be nice to try brewing a barleywine. I haven't brewed one before. These are the ingredients I have on hand right now (I really don't feel like driving out to the homebrew store either):

-3.3 lbs CBW Briess Golden Light liquid
-1 lb 2 row malt
-1 lb crystal malt
-1 oz Warrior hop pellets
-1 oz Amarillo leaf hops
-Wyeast American ale yeast (1056)
-I also have brown sugar, corn sugar honey and irish moss in large quantities.

Can I make a decent barleywine here?
Anyone feel like helping me out on the 1 gallon recipe?
 
Yeah, looks like you have stuff to go for a barleywine. Maybe something like... ??

2.25 lb Pale LME
0.25 lb Crystal Malt
0.50 lb Brown Sugar
0.33 oz Warrior @ 60min
0.25 oz Amarillo @ 10min

That should get you something around 1.100 OG and 65 IBU. Color will depend on how dark your crystal is...

If you like your BW a little more hoppy in the aroma area, you could another dash of Amarillo near flameout...
