I brewed an American Brown based off Moose Drool. Not quite a clone but close to Grain %s. Here is the recipe.


American Brown Ale


Type: All Grain

Batch Size: 5.00 gal
Boil Time:60 min
Brewhouse Efficiency: 77.00
Taste Notes:

0.25 lb Chocolate Malt (350.0 SRM) Grain 2.31 %
0.06 lb Black (Patent) Malt (500.0 SRM) Grain 0.56 %
1.50 oz Fuggles [4.50 %] (60 min) Hops 20.6 IBU
0.33 oz Fuggles [4.50 %] (20 min) Hops 2.8 IBU
0.33 oz Hallertauer Hersbrucker [4.00 %] (20 min) Hops 2.7 IBU

Mashed = 75minutes at 70C Mashed out at 80C
Boiled = 70minutes
IBU = 26.2
SRM = b/t 19-21 - (Dark Candi Sugar addition unsure of SRM Contribution)
Yeast = American 1056 500ml washed yeast starter from American Amber.


I would love to dry hop this with 1oz Hersbrucker or Fuggles. Would that take it out of style?

IMHO, it would fit in style. I actually just brew to taste and don't really worry too much about style designators. Your recipe looks good to me.
