I'm thinking I may throw together some odds and ends to brew a 'whatever' beer. Does anybody have any suggestions on what to do with the following....

Coopers Bitter (3.75lbs lme)
Pale Malt Extract (4lb can)
Northwestern Gold (3.3lb lme bag)
3 oz Hallertauer Tradition (6%)
.5oz Warrior (16.4%)
10oz chocolate malt
1 pack Coopers dry yeast (it's all I've got on hand :D)

Can anything interesting come from any combo of the above? I'll have some time on my hands tonight...and an empty corny thats been lonely. Thanks

Sounds like a winner to me. Thanks much. :mug:

Oh yeah, the Coopers is pre-hopped. Did your calculations for IBUs including this or will most of the hop boil out of it?
