Lagunita's Wilco Tango Foxtrot is one of my favorite beers but I have been unable to find it for over 2 years. It's normally a February release and you should try it if you ever find it.
Below is my first attempt at a clone recipe for it. I'm hoping to get feedback from the great folks here. I was able to get these tips from Lagunita's head brewer:
"From: Jeremy Marshall
Brown ale that gets its color from 1/3 each black malt, chocolate & roast barley. We aroma hop with mix of Amarillo & Chinook."
My recipe attempt (using Brewer's Friend):
Lagunitas WTF (Wilco Tango Foxtrot)
All-grain
Size: 5 gallon
OG: 1.080
FG: 1.020
ABV: 7.87%
IBU: 64

0.75 oz Northern Brewer @ 60 min
0.5 oz Northern Brewer @ 30 min
