8.5 lbs. - 2 Row Pale Malt
12 oz. - Crystal Malt (80L)
4 oz. - Crystal Malt (60L)
4 oz. - Chocolate Malt
0.5 oz. - Black Patent Malt
Hop Schedule (25.5 IBU)
2 oz - East Kent Goldings 4.5%aau (45min)
1 oz - Liberty 4.5%aau (5 min.)
1 oz - Willamette 4.5%aau (5 min.)
1 oz - Liberty 4.5%aau (0 min.)
Great beer though I have found that it seems to take about 2 months for the flavors to come around. Before that it is has been kind of watery and not flavorful but after about the 2 month mark it turns into a completely different beer. Don't know if it is something that I am doing or what (my other beers don't follow this pattern) but in the end it is a great beer.

I recommend a malty brown ale brewed with rich fruit like raspberries or cherries. Just get creative with it. I created a chocolate raspberry lager (based on an octoberfest, chocolate malt added) that is wonderfully aromatic, malty, and crisp.
