Hello all,
A friend of mine gave me a 4lb can of Cooper's lager (pre-hopped) liquid malt extract (LME). I am not a big fan of lager, and I don't have the yeast or cooling equipment to make a real lager. I'm guessing this Cooper's can is just a basic light LME with some unknown bittering hops. Any ideas how I can make a decent pale ale out of this thing.
I have to following ingredients on hand:
- 2-row malted barley
- Malted wheat
- Malted rye
- Chocolate malt
- Crystal malt
- Dark dry malt extract (3lbs)
- Fuggle hops
- Cascade hops
- Saaz hops
- Columbus hops
- Safale s-04 Dry ale yeast
- Dark brown sugar
- Dextrose
- Table sugar
Any recipes, recommendations, or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot!!
