So my most recent brew I did was an attempt at a Surly Abrasive clone. I really like Abrasive and think it tastes great, not abrasive at all just pure tasty wonderfulness. So Surly lists on their website the ingredients they use, but not any percentages or other specifics. I used that info and used beeersmith to try and get a recipe that was close, but I accept it likely will taste different but just going for something close. There was already a clone recipe listed on beersmith so I took that into account but make some changes. here is what surly says;
and here is the recipe I came up with

Fermentation is 3 1/2 weeks in and I just took a gravity reading. Its at 1.012, and it seriously tasted very similar. Still have yet to dry hop. Instead of English ale yeast I used American II 1272. I have been making a video of my whole process that I will post when its finished.
