From BYO clone recipe book:

1 lb, 13 oz. 2-Row Pale
3 oz. Crystal 60
1.75 lbs. Light Dried Malt Extract
3 AAU Warrior (30)
2.5 AAU Tettnang (30)
.25 oz. Cascade (0)
Wyeast 1335 or White Labs WLP002
3.3 lbs. Oregon Fruit Products Apricot Puree or 3 oz. apricot flavoring (add in secondary)

If doing AG - omit malt extracts and mash 9 lbs. 10 oz. of pale malt in 12.5 quarts water - single infusion at 152 degrees.

Boil 90 minutes.

Yes... that's a 5gal recipe. Sounds like you might want to get a few kit brews under your belt, though, before you venture out on your own. They'll come with instructions, etc to help you get familiar with the brewing process. Not trying be condescending at all (I started with kits myself), just don't want you to be disappointed.

Not to fear, however, as Austin Homebrew has a kit available for Magic Hat #9. You can pick it up here
