This is a recipe I came up with tonight. Wanted to start with a moderately sweet taste so I looked to Cheesefood's Vanilla Caramel Cream Ale recipe for a base then adjusted for what I think it needs to support the eggnog spices including changing the hop profile. I think Danstar's Nottingham is going to be the perfect yeast since it's flavor profile is very low.
