Hey guys I was a little rusty when i went shopping for brew supplies and i was one pound short of DME. Im going for a dark Red Ale with some decent hop flavors. Sort of a Red Rocket Ale clone, but with fruity hop notes.
To make up for the DME i forgot, I'm just going to use a half pound of light brown sugar. I hope it wont throw the flavor off too much. Here's the Recipe after i changed it to the brown sugar. Let me know what you guys think.
Thanks
