This recipe is old enough that it doesn't fall into current styles. Bitter as an ESB, color is closer to a Mild.

6.6 lbs Northwestern Light LME (20% rice syrup)
4 oz. Crystal 40L
1 oz. Chocolate malt

Heat two gallons to 160F and steep grains for 20 minutes.

Boil for 30 minutes
1 oz. Fuggles 4.9%
1 oz. EKGoldings 5.0%
0.25 oz. Columbus 12.2%

Add extract and boil 5 minutes longer to sanitize.
 
The flavor is really nice. Bitter, with a low hop flavor/aroma. Solid malt backbone.
